Brasil: Nunca Mais (Portuguese for ''Brazil: never again'') is a book edited by Paulo Evaristo Arns, in which episodes of torture under the military dictatorship in Brazil between 1964 and 1979 are documented. With the assistance of the Presbyterian minister Jaime Wright, he photocopied the military government's records on torture, which were used as his source.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Projeto Brasil Nunca Mais - História dos Direitos Humanos no Brasil ) Portuguese version of the book.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Commission of Inquiry: Brazil - United States Institute for Peace )〕 There is an English version of this book called ''Torture in Brazil: A Shocking Report on the Pervasive Use of Torture by Brazilian Military Governments, 1964-1979''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Torture in Brazil: A Shocking Report on the Pervasive Use of Torture by Brazilian Military Governments, 1964-1979, Secretly Prepared by the Archiodese of São Paulo - GoogleBooks )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Torture in Brazil - University of Texas Press )〕 It can be viewed as the Brazilian version of Argentina's Nunca Más Report released one year before. In total, the book documents 17,000 victims, provides details of 1,800 torture episodes and lists the names of the 353 victims who were killed by the regime.

The book was kept secret for five years under the dictatorship, and only published with the return to democracy. The book was a bestseller and provoked a widescale movement for change. After its release, a Non-governmental organization called ''Tortura nunca mais'' was founded and began to monitor and denounce the presence of torture in Brazil.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Um grupo dedicado ao combate à tortura e à defesa da memória política brasileira - Grupo Tortura Nunca Mais ) Rio de Janeiro branch site of the group.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Apresentação - Grupo Tortura Nunca Mais ) São Paulo branch site of the group.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Apresentação - Grupo Tortura Nunca Mais ) Bahia branch site of the group.〕 == See also == * Human rights in Brazil * DOI-CODI * Sérgio Paranhos Fleury 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Brasil: Nunca Mais」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
