  • Kinship, Emotions and Morality in Contemporary Politics
    Dossier Gramáticas de la (¿post?) violencia: identidades, guerras, cuerpos y fronteras Deserving victimhood: kinship, emotions and morality in contemporary politics Virginia Vecchioli 1 1 Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, Programa de Pós-graduação em Ciências Sociais, Santa Maria/RS, Brasil Abstract This paper is about the place of family values, kinship relations and feelings of compassion for victims in national public space. Setting out from a description of various public affairs concerning the relatives of disappeared in Argentina, I show the key role played by blood ties and family values in forming a legitimate political representation. While the claim of blood ties with victims had been instituted as a legitimate form of political representation ever since the return to democracy, over the last decade or so sentiments towards victims have become incorporated into the State, enabling the latter to be imagined as a victim too. Here I explore diverse assessments of these affective dispositions, the critical place attributed to suffering in forging forms of governmentality, and the significant role played by the State in the unequal distribution of feelings of compassion.

  • Constructing and Contesting the Echo Chamber: a Study of Print Media Discourse on the Final Year of the 1976-1983 Dictatorship in Argentina
    Constructing and contesting the echo chamber: A study of print media discourse on the final year of the 1976-1983 dictatorship in Argentina Muireann Prendergast This thesis is submitted in part fulfilment of the academic requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Helen Kelly-Holmes Dr. David Atkinson Submitted to the University of Limerick, September 2018 i External Examiner: Prof. Michał Krzyżanowski, University of Liverpool and University of Örebro Internal Examiner: Dr. Cinta Ramblado, University of Limerick ii ABSTRACT For post-dictatorship countries attempting to come to terms with and understand their past, historical media studies have a particularly important role to play. In identifying discursive strategies, objective and subjective versions of events, and key social actors, they not only contribute to the linguistic debate on how "meaning" is produced in media but can have wider implications at the societal level in the construction of "collective memory" and identity (Achugar, 2007). The 1982-1983 period marked the end of a brutal dictatorship, Argentina’s Proceso de Reorganización Nacional (National Reorganization Process) and a difficult period of transition to democracy for the country following defeat in the 1982 Falklands/Malvinas War. Using a Critical Discourse Analysis framework, this research project analyses the role of the print media in both sustaining and challenging the dictatorship in Argentina during its period of crisis. The methodological approach of this study is mixed, combining the qualitative principles of the Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA) (Reisigl and Wodak, 2009) with a quantitative corpus-assisted discourse analysis of newspapers that supported the regime. Furthermore, a Synchronic-Diachronic method developed by Argentinean linguist Pardo (2008, 2010) for specific application to her country’s media is employed for qualitative study of newspaper discourse opposing the dictatorship, while a multimodal analytical framework is applied to the political cartoons of the period.

By proclaiming that we are all the children of the mothers and grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo, Kirchner distanced himself from his civil predecessors, Alfonsín and Menem, who had had a turbulent, and in the second case, openly hostile relationship with the relatives of the disappeared.2 The next day, newspapers circulated an image that seemed to mark a radical departure from the past.3 In the photographer’s framing of the scene, Bonafini looks on from the sidelines as Kirchner embraces Carlotto, her more conciliatory and diplomatic colleague. Wearing an emblematic scarf that has become iconic, and a poncho to create a more ethnic genealogy for her public persona, Bonafini stares at the camera with an air of discomfort.

By taking up a public defense of motherhood, they transferred a private role into a public, political act, established themselves as motherist activists, and effectively criticized the dictatorship. Today the women continue to organize, but their agenda has shifted from "apolitical" motherism to a radical anti- neoliberal, anti-imperialist critique. What caused this shift in the Madres' message? Although the literature has addressed how the Madres evolved, charting their changing claims and tactics over time, the question of why they were successful in shifting their claims to such radical political- economic critiques, given their collective identity as mothers, has yet to be adequately addressed.

  • The Search for the Kidnapped Children of Argentina's Disappeared
    Reclaiming the Past: the search for the kidnapped children of Argentina’s disappeared Ari Gandsman Department of Anthropology McGill University, Montreal January 2008 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © 2008 Ari Gandsman Abstract During the military dictatorship in Argentina between 1976 and 1983, an estimated 30,000 civilians disappeared. Most of these individuals were kidnapped by the military and taken to clandestine prisons where they were tortured and killed. The children of these victims were also seized, and pregnant women were kept alive long enough to give birth. An estimated 500 infants and young children of the disappeared were given for adoption to families with close ties to the military. Las Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo (the Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo) were formed to discover the fate of their grandchildren. This thesis examines the key role that the search for the kidnapped children of the disappeared has played in Argentina’s post-dictatorship human rights struggle. As an ethnography of human rights, I analyze how human rights struggles are waged over competing empathetic appeals. The thesis focuses on public debates and legal contents. It is divided into three interrelated sections: the first focuses on the disappeared, the second on the search for and recovery of the children of the disappeared and the third on family member organizations. In debates about the disappeared, I trace the shifting view of the disappeared within human rights discourse from innocent victims in the aftermath of the dictatorship to political activists in the present.

Throughout the 20th century, authoritarian re- gimes orchestrated their state security forces and judiciaries against their own citizens in order to implement heinous purges and repress political dissidents.1 Illegal state repression by Latin American dictatorships during the 1970s and 1980s, which claimed or severely affected the lives of tens of thousands of individuals, represents a primary example of this scourge.2 The Argentine case was particularly traumatic.3 To counter violent actions by political groups, the state initially restricted itself to legally available means,4 yet quickly switched to unlawful tactics. These tactics escalated from sporadic extrajudicial executions5 to the deployment of para-police death squads6 and, finally, to a massive operation launched by the dictator- * Assistant Professor of Law, Universidad de San Andr´es Law School.

  • Law's Power to Name Argentina's Disappeared Grandchildren
    Oñati Socio-legal Series, v. 7, n. 2 (2017) – 'Moving On'? Official Responses to Mass Harm and the Question of Justice ISSN: 2079-5971 Truth at Any Cost? Law’s Power to Name Argentina’s Disappeared Grandchildren MARIA RAE∗ Rae, M., 2017. Truth at Any Cost? Law’s Power to Name Argentina’s Disappeared Grandchildren. Oñati Socio-legal Series [online], 7 (2), 324-336. Available from: https://ssrn.com/abstract=2975420 Abstract During Argentina’s military dictatorship (1976-1983) more than 30,000 people disappeared including 500 babies who were stolen from detainees and given to military supporters. The Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo have been successful in lobbying for laws to reclaim these babies and make perpetrators accountable. This article explores one such law that made DNA testing on these now adult children compulsory. In drawing on Bourdieu’s notion of law as a symbolic discourse of power it considers how this law could establish an authoritative reality that, in some cases, was contrary to the interests and experiences of the stolen grandchildren. Finally, it argues there must be caution about legal responses that can have the unintended consequences of continuing similar harms of the past. Key words Argentina; Grandmothers of the Plaza de Mayo; Bourdieu; symbolic violence; human rights Resumen Durante la dictadura militar argentina (1976-1983) desaparecieron más de 30.000 personas, entre ellas 500 bebés que fueron robados a mujeres que estaban detenidas y entregados a simpatizantes de los militares. Las Abuelas de la Plaza de Mayo han tenido éxito en ejercer presión a favor de una legislación que reclame a estos bebés y responsabilice a los culpables.
