Next Time They'll Come to Count the Dead

By Mark Danner

In the early hours of March 24, 1980, Archbishop Óscar Romero of El Salvador was assassinated while saying Mass in a hospital chapel. His murder was a watershed moment in the country's long and bloody civil war, and it sent shockwaves throughout the world. But Romero was just one of thousands of Latin Americans who have been disappeared over the past several decades.

In Next Time They'll Come to Count the Dead, Mark Danner tells the stories of the disappeared from all over Latin America. He traces the history of disappearances in the region, from the early days of military dictatorships to the present day, and he sheds light on the ways in which governments and security forces have used disappearances as a tool of terror and control.
