Looking for Justice in Argentina

To tell the story of an historic win for truth and justice for labor against corporate complicity and the 1970s military dictatorship in Argentina, Karen Robert follows 24 auto workers from the Ford Argentina factory in her book, Driving Terror. In the book, Robert, a history professor at St. Thomas University in New Brunswick, Canada explores issues of labor repression and the collusion of enormously powerful forces against workers in a battle for profit and control. As her story chronicles working class activism and the demand for human rights, she provides a detailed narrative of Argentine labor history from the 1970s to 2010s. Professor Robert spoke with Gil Halsted and Amitabh Pal about various issues covered in the book as well as leaving listeners with a mystery as to what role the Ford Falcon played in the story.
