To my children, Violeta and Pablo To my life companion, Silvia Acknowledgements I would deeply like to thank those who made it possible for this new challenge to be solved. Those who either supported us and the project, or gave testimony in front of boys and girls in our schools. To the Abuelas, to the Madres, to the Nietos, to Adolfo Pérez Esquivel, to Cecilia Vicentini, Azucena Villaflor’s daughter. To those who make it possible to build the Collective Memory of our recent past thanks to their commitment in school classrooms, thus granting the statement of Nunca Más. To all young students, for their commitment and participation in each meeting, thus inviting us to keep the hope of a future based on Collective Memory, Truth and Justice alive. To those who walked the process with me and supported me with their solidarity and commitment to Collective Memory and Human Rights from the Educación y Memoria programme: Nicolas Olivieri, Sol Peralta, Marcela Poczymok, Mariana Sequeira, Flavio Gabaldón, Marcia Wainer y Brian Koziner. To Mónica Lamas, Florencia Martínez, Milva Benítez, Analía Faraci y Alejandro Zabalo, as token of the many members of the programme throughout a decade of collaborative work.

As a teacher, I am deeply pleased by the outstanding work he has created in his book Identity: I a pedagogy on collective memory. His writing is the result of his educational calling and his commitment to citizenship education on Truth, Memory, and Justice for students of state and private schools. We, Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, have supported through the years his persistence on transmitting the importance of a history that was not mentioned in textbooks. Luckily, this is no longer so. Professor Altamirano has backed this policy by bringing schools students together with members of Abuelas, between these young people who are eager to learn about the darkest moments in Argentine history and our restored grandchildren. The meetings are experiences that become memorable in the hearts and minds of students so much so that they understand what we lived in our society has been the worst history and that we should never experience it again. The present book brings you those encounters, our voices and our grandchildren's. Our stories reconstructed. You will find the happy, simple, everyday moments, and you will also find the painful, uncertain, or unfair. The most interesting and beautiful fact, though, is that all the stories told have been sifted through by a splendid school youth that embraces and enhances them with tenderness, love and care. We wish to thank all school communities since they have shown that public education is the best place for collective memory to be exercised, become strong, and grow. We are certain that readers will find in the coming pages the value and importance of the task carried out by this teacher and will share with us the pride we feel to be part of this project. 6 Prologue Carmen Nebreda Educator, member of Unión de Educadores of the province of Córdoba, former legislator. Promotor of the publication of Stories: educating on collective memory1 t is hard to think of something more educational for a country than knowledge of their own history. Claudio Altamirano has certainly grasped this not only in I the meetings held in schools but also in the development of the present book, published by the National Congress Library in its first edition. These materials have become a precise tool for the integral education of students and teachers in Argentine schools. Grandmothers, mothers, and children abducted from our detained and disappeared fellows shape one common story, the narrative of a horror experience and a firm action towards the reconstruction of the social body by means of the search of justice, truth and identity. An action that, if limited to isolated hatred, would have deprived the world of one of the noblest teachings of the century: how fighting together under the light of hope can defeat the paralysis created by fear. Let me summarise my thoughts in the words of Victoria Montenegro Torres, whose real name turned out to be prophetical: Fear is over. Fear left with Maria Sol. I am Victoria. 1 Stories. Educating on Collective Memory, published in 2012, is a preliminary version of Identity: A Pedagogy on Collective Memory. 7 COLLECTIVE MEMORY, TRUTH, JUSTICE 8 Introduction dentity. A Pedagogy on Collective Memory brings us the fundamental voices of the protagonists of our recent history. In the coming pages, Madres, Abuelas I and Nietos tell us some of the key episodes that have left a mark in our country. They are with us, in their role as Human Rights representatives, when we work with students of primary and secondary schools, as well as in higher education in our role as Programa Educación y Memoria (Education and Collective Memory Programme). Their testimonies are seeds we sow for a future society that will understand that the Nunca Más is possible if we confront indifference with collective memory and if we leave selfish attitudes in favour of collective commitment. This book brings the loving and hopeful words of the protagonists in each story of search and encounter in order to produce a material of reference for the discussion of the topic in all schools. Many of the stories are the answers to questions posed by students and portray not only solidarity in adverse circumstances, but also the courage necessary to face and overcome fear, and perseverance in the search for truth. A search led by the certainty that the claim for justice is the only proper way. In the interviews, our speakers eloquently combine the ideals of the 70’s youth, smothered by the civic-military dictatorship, with the events they lived, later understood as milestones of our times. The personal colour that each participant brings to the interviews in terms of family anecdotes and daily lives has turned these narratives into stories of collective memory that pervades and transcends a specific time and place. Thanks to Carmen Nebreda who, as legislator, presented the initiative for the preliminary version of this book to be published to the bi-chamber administrative committee of the National Congress Library, the proposal was accepted

La elección temática señalada guarda relación con los procesos de trans- formación que se observan a escala global y, con ello, resaltar la necesidad de que la economía argentina sea capaz de adaptarse a los nuevos escenarios internacionales que serán determinantes a lo largo del siglo XXI. El mundo actual tiende a ser más multilateral, en el sentido de más actores económicos relevantes y, por lo tanto, cada vez son más numerosos y más significativos los temas que requieren propuestas y soluciones globales, tales como los vinculados con la alimentación, la energía, el medio ambiente, las migraciones y el ordenamiento monetario y financiero internacional. En tal contexto, la economía argentina puede encontrar un sendero favorable para un desarrollo sostenido, de largo plazo y con capacidad de inclusión social.

  • Genocides Andconflicts
    0 1 Genocides and Conflicts in the 20th and 21st Centuries Preface This book provides summaries of some of the mass atrocities that have occurred in the last hundred years. We have intentionally included conflicts that often are not studied in courses about genocide. We encourage readers to learn about these events for two reasons: first, when knowledge of these atrocities is not part of our shared history and memory, those who suffered, and their once- vibrant cultures and communities, are made invisible yet again. Second, it is important for us to realize the breadth of genocides across time and place. ‘Never again’ has come to mean ‘over and over again.’ Perhaps if we can recognize that genocide is a wide-ranging and repetitive scourge on the planet, we can someday reach a world without genocide. Thanks go to Jacob Simpson, Research and Advocacy Associate, and Amalie Wilkinson, Research Intern, for their work on this book. 2 Table of Contents Native Americans, 1492-Present ............................................................................................ 3 Namibia, 1904-1907 ............................................................................................................... 5 The Armenian Genocide, 1915-1923 ....................................................................................... 7 The Ottoman Christian Genocide, 1915-23 ..............................................................................9 The Holodomor, 1932-1933.................................................................................................

INTRODUCTION: LATIN AMERICAN STRUGGLE FOR DEMOCRACY The dreadful experiences endured in Latin America during the 1970's and 1980's evolved into a troubled transitional period before democracy began to consolidate. In those two decades, military rulers from all over the region displaced democratically elected governments through the use of force, and imprisoned, tortured and killed their opponents, including the baby-snatch- ing cases or trafficking with the newborn of murdered prison- ers.1 The term "desaparecido"was coined to name those who disappeared without a trace after being arrested by members of the security forces, burdening their relatives with the addi- tional anguish of not knowing the fate of their loved ones.

Javier Nesprias, IAA, FADU, UBA. [email protected] “…un descenso progresivo y cauteloso al subte entendido como otra cosa, como una lenta respiración diferente, un pulso que de alguna manera casi impensable no latía para la ciudad, no era ya solamente uno de los transportes de la ciudad.” Julio Cortázar, Texto en una libreta, 1980. Introducción. Este trabajo estudia un momento particular de la historia del subte porteño, se presenta aquí una serie de 18 proyectos de tranvías subterráneos que se desarrollaron entre 1887 y 19111, y de los cuales sólo dos logaron materializarse: el de la Compañía Anglo Argentina de Tranvías y el de la empresa del Ferrocarril Oeste. A través de estos proyectos, la historia de la ciudad es abordada “desde abajo” y a través de un objeto que podría considerarse oculto dentro de la historia urbana de Buenos Aires. A excepción de trabajos específicos sobre la temática, el subte no se ha presentado como un objeto relevante dentro de los distintos estudios que se ocuparon de las aceleradas y vertiginosas transformaciones que la ciudad sufrió en el período propuesto para este trabajo. La historia de los orígenes del subterráneo se aborda aquí superando su mera condición de transporte público. Se propone entender los proyectos como instrumentos modernizadores mediante los cuales pueden verse los debates, ideas y conflictos que se presentaron en torno a la instalación del primer subterráneo.
