Disappearance has social, political and cultural connotations that impact on the social fabric of communities and on families of victims. In this sense, in the course of the search process, families build social and political networks that transform their passive role as victims into active agents that use their presence in hearings before the Court to stress their claims and needs.engCopyright (c) 2021 Torture JournalEnforced disappearanceInter-American Court of Human RightsReparationsVictimsjournal article2025-12-221997-3322
