«La encrucijada» is Baltasar Garzón's essay on ethics, justice and human rights, published by Ediciones Carena in paperback (412 pages, in Spanish).
The former judge reflects on the loss of collective capacity to think about what we are and what we want to be as a society, and on the conversion of global citizen mobilization into anger at the lack of responses from politics, economics and justice. Faced with indifference, he proposes a civic reaction based on humanist values: ethics, human rights, justice, the fight against corruption and the defense of the most vulnerable, with an eye to halting the advance of the far right and impunity. Includes a prologue by Pepe Mujica.
The work belongs to the Ensayo Carena collection and bears number 538 of that collection.
Aimed at readers interested in political and social essays, and in Baltasar Garzón's work on justice and human rights.
Baltasar Garzón Real is a Spanish former judge in Spain's central criminal court, the Audiencia Nacional the court responsible for investigation of the most serious criminal cases, including terrorism, organised crime, crimes against humanity, Illegal drug trade, money laundering and state terrorism.
