Dissident Genders and Sexualities in the Andes

"This book fills a gaping hole in transitional justice theory and practice, addressing the harms and transformation possible in post-conflict society by looking to dissident gender and sexualities as a source of inspiration, inclusion, and explanation. This book turns traditional transitional justice thinking on its head by exposing its heteronormative faultlines. It provides a radical rethink of harm and its necessary counterpart: radical presence in transitional justice process." - Fionnuala Ní Aoláin, Regents Professor and Robina Chair in Law, Public Policy, and Society at the University of Minnesota

"This book is extraordinary! Dissident Genders and Sexualities in the Andes not only critiques state-centered approaches to transitional justice, it enacts 'alternative transitions' that contribute to collective healing. By addressing dissident genders and sexualities in their plurality, and by countering the binding nature of (cishetero)normative hegemonies, Bueno-Hansen's analysis makes intelligible queer/cuir decolonial possibilities." - Amy Lind, professor of public and international affairs at the University of Cincinnati
