This book challenges how the human rights movement thinks about a country notorious rightwing terrorism. David Stoll's reinterpretation of the Civil War in Guatemala focuses on the Ixil Mayas of the Western highlands. Based on their testimony, he attributes Ixil support for guerrillas in the early 1980s no to revolutionary impulses but to dual violence - the coercive pressures of military confrontation which Ixils describe as "living between two fires". As a study of peasant neutralismo under crossfire, Between Two Armies questions whether confrontational forms of human rights organizing reflect the wishes of survivors trying to rebuild civil society, that is, political space to make their own decisions.
