The Macro-Comparison between the CICIG and the MACCIH, a Shared and Differentiated Necessity

Abstract

This study focuses on comparing from a legal-scientific perspective the role of the International Commission Against Impunity in Guatemala (CICIG) and the Mission of Support Against Corruption and Impunity in Honduras (MACCIH). In this macro-comparison, both its coincident and divergent aspects are revealed, as well as the contextual complexity within each social reality. Likewise, the analytical framework that has allowed us to qualify its incidence effectively, and an objective reflection on its implications to reveal an alternative view of the Status Quo that prevails in both societies.
