In 1977, Villaflor led in creating the Mother of the Plaza de Mayo to protest the Argentine’s dictators disappearing of thousands of its own citizens. A person is “disappeared” when a government or its agents kills that person, hides their remains, and denies any knowledge of their whereabouts. Thousands were disappeared by Argentina’s dictatorship between 1977 and 1983; thousands of others have been disappeared around this world.

ROCK SUBVERSIVO THE RESPONSE OF ARGENTINA ’S YOUTH TO EL PROCESO Augustin Diz Introduction In Argentina today, the memory of the military government that ruled between the years 1976 and 1983 remains a sharp one. The question of repa - rations for those who disappeared as a consequence of state or guerrilla ter - rorism remains hotly debated. “Repression” and “oppression” have strong connotations linked to the violence of the military regime. It was a sad time in Argentine history, one that many have not been able to forget. The period was marked by sharp social divisions, disorder, and moral confusion ; in - deed , many Argentines were afraid to articulate their views out of fear of retribution from either the state or armed guerillas groups. In spite of this fear, Argentines needed to find ways to express themselves. If nothing else, they needed a medium through which to voice their innermost concerns and anxieties, political or otherwise . Artistic and cultural expressions, such as lit - erature or music, offered such a medium and, as a result, they soon became highly politicized.
