N2 - My blog provides an introduction to my article “The Hidden Histories of the Pinochet Case” open access in Journal of Law and Society 51:4 (2024): 459–490: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jols.12499In the blog, I describe how the struggle to render Pinochet accountable engaged with my scholarly and political passions; and how I mapped the Pinochet case - its emergence, progress and consequences, derived in part from interviews with over 250 key actors in ten countries. My blog summarises the key conclusions of my article. Finally, I reflect on the Pinochet case, the Pinochet precedent and the universal jurisdiction that underpins it, their virtues and downsides, from the perspective of 2025.
