Böcker av Luis van Isschot

Human rights activism is often associated with international organisations that try to effect change in regional conflicts around the globe. In Barrancabermeja, Colombia, argues Luis van Isschot, the struggle for rights has emerged more organically and locally, out of a long history of civil and social organising. He offers insight into the lives of home-grown activists in a conflict zone, against the backdrop of major historical changes.
