About this title

Synopsis

This book traces the process of producing testimonio with the children of Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement (MRTA). Challenging the notion of war-torn countries as pure devastation, the author invites readers to see them as sites of knowledge and creativity with much to offer for education, peace studies, and social justice research.
