Under violent military dictatorship, Operation Condor and the Dirty War scarred Argentina from the mid-1970s to the early 1980s. But what about the other Dirty War, during which Argentine civilians and foreign powers ignored and even abetted the state's vicious crimes against humanity? In this groundbreaking work, David Sheinin draws on previously classified Argentine government documents, human rights lawsuits, and archived propaganda to illustrate the military-constructed fantasy of bloodshed as a public defense of human rights.
