“We unanimously express that, in the ethic exercise of our profession, the social scientists cannot be limited to the diagnosis of their societies, without knowing and facing the multiple dimensions in which the legal monopoly of violence are exercised in an inhuman and arbitrary manner in our continent.
We postulate the urgency to collaborate in the construction of a moral judgment that enable the rupture with the forms of blind obedience to authority, pointing out and promoting the necessary disobedience to all inhuman orders”
Final declaration (Approved in Assembly) of the XXII Congress of the Latin American Association of Sociology. Concepcion, (Chile), October 1999
