Bibliography
The purpose of this study is to document and analyse, on the basis of the experiences of the Chilean human rights movement, how people develop new ways of resisting abuse of power which is an inherent element of state terrorism. The book is a map of the psychological strategies of terror and of the counter -strategies against them, seen through the Chilean 'prism'.
