Definición

  • Political prisoners is a term used to refer to individuals who are imprisoned or otherwise held against their will because their ideas or public personae are considered by a government to present a threat to the nation or opposition to the current regime. Frequently, incarceration of political prisoners takes place with no recourse to legal or judicial processes. [Source: Encyclopedia of Political Communication; Political Prisoners]
