Much like forensic or ballistic analysis, this testimony enters the legal process as judicial evidence. Despite its widespread use in the U.S., Latin America, Europe and Oceania, relatively little is known about how this cultural evidence is employed, and to what effect. This edited volume summarizes the current state of cultural evidence in six Latin American countries: Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Chile, Colombia and Uruguay, and lays out the challenges and dilemmas involved in the creation and use of cultural expert testimony"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Evidence, Expert $z Latin America. 650 0 $a Law and anthropology. 650 0 $a Culture and law $z Latin America. 650 7 $a Culture and law. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00885095 650 7 $a Evidence, Expert. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00917231 650 7 $a Law and anthropology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00993892 651 7 $a Latin America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245945 700 1 $a Rodriguez, Leila, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220526014734.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=043B31BC5F0811ECA70E6FDD2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
