Momentos Efimeros

Momentos Efímeros Existen diferentes instantes en la vida que por sucintos que sean, tienden a permanecer eternos en nuestro interior, haciéndose reproducir eternamente con el pasar del tiempo. Una breve despedida o una cálida bienvenida; Un adiós que finaliza con la relación perfecta; Un hola que simboliza la apertura de nuevos caminos, o sencillamente un momento efímero capaz de cambiar el panorama que se creía perfecto, hasta que ese mágico acontecimiento sucede, de la mano de un tercer participante; destino para encontrados, que mueven nuestros corazones como trebejos de ajedrez rompiendo las reglas del movimiento establecido desde antaño. Momentos efímeros que radican en la melodía perfecta, en el frenesí de palabras expedidas, o en el vaivén de las olas que nos recuerda un mágico instante, como si fuese la primera vez... Un fugaz destello que permanecerá en nuestros corazones por siempre. Gerardo Urrutia

Popkin analyzes the role of international actors, notably the United States and the United Nations, and the contributions and limitations of international assistance in efforts to establish accountability and reform the justice system in El Salvador. The author discusses the essential role of civil society in attempts to establish accountability and an effective justice system for all, and looks at the reasons for and the consequences of the limited role played by Salvadorean civil society. She also addresses the challenges facing democratic reform efforts in the context of a postwar crime wave. Peace Without Justice grew out of Margaret Popkin's extensive experience working as a human rights advocate in El Salvador during the armed conflict and interviews with a variety of Salvadorans and others involved in justice reform and in negotiating and implementing the peace accords.
