Víctor Manuel Sánchez Valdés

academic

Víctor Manuel Sánchez Valdés is an academic and researcher at the Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila, specializing in security issues. He has contributed to the understanding of complex social phenomena such as crime and violence in Mexico, particularly in the context of organized crime. His insights have been sought in discussions regarding the terminology used to describe sites of mass violence, including the term 'campo de exterminio' (extermination camp), as it relates to recent discoveries in Teuchitlán, Jalisco. Sánchez Valdés argues for a nuanced interpretation of such terms, emphasizing the need for continued investigation and accountability regarding human rights violations.
