This book explores the current human rights crisis created by the
War on Drugs in Mexico. It focuses on three vulnerable communities
that have felt the impacts of this war firsthand: undocumented
Central American migrants in transit to the United States,
journalists who report on violence in highly dangerous regions, and
the mourning relatives of victims of severe crimes, who take
collective action by participating in human rights investigations
and searching for their missing loved ones. Analyzing contemporary
novels, journalistic chronicles, testimonial works, and
documentaries, the book reveals the political potential of these
communities' vulnerability and victimization portrayed in these
fictional and non-fictional representations. Violence against
migrants, journalists, and activists reveals an array of human
rights violations affecting the right to safe transit across
borders, freedom of expression, the right to information, and the
right to truth and justice.
