  • El Debate Entre Walsh Y La Conducción Montonera
    El debate entre Walsh y la conducción Montonera Lic. Ernesto Salas “-Cuando se resolvió pasar a la clandestinidad, sabíamos que quedaban muchísimos compañeros sin seguridad”, le dijo Roberto Perdía1. Gregorio Goyo Levenson2 había iniciado gestiones ante la conducción para que el partido solventara los gastos de instalación en Roma de la familia Bettanin. Como Goyo era tesorero del Movimiento, ya les había adelantado algún dinero de la organización. Por eso no entendió cuando el Pelado Perdía le dijo que no gastara un peso más y le devolviera lo prestado; que después del golpe militar habían calculado el presupuesto para dar cobertura contra la represión a todas las columnas (traslados, nuevas casas, locales operativos, etc.) y que habían dado marcha atrás porque no podían usar semejante cantidad de dinero en eso, ya que lo necesitaban “para hacer política”. Con indignación, Levenson le contestó: -¿Cuántos de los que hoy figuran en las listas de muertos y desaparecidos estarían con vida entre nosotros?3 Durante los años 1976 y 1977, centenares de militantes de distintos niveles de Montoneros abandonaron su participación en la organización, ya sea de sus frentes de masas o de la lucha armada. Muchos de ellos plantearon en su ámbito de militancia las causas de su disidencia; otros refluyeron de manera instintiva, como la mayoría popular, ante la carnicería que se avizoraba. No sólo –como creía Walsh- hacia su última identidad conocida -el peronismo-, sino hacia los ámbitos mínimos de las redes familiares y sociales que los cobijaron. Otros cambiaron de ciudad, o lograron abandonar el país, la mayoría por sus propios medios.

LAToRE* Abstract: The military regimes of the countries of the Southern Cone of South America cooperated under Operation Condor to eradicate all political opposition throughout the 1960s and 1970s. The military leaders of these regimes are only now being brought to justice for their crimes, which include widespread killing and "disappearances" of political opponents and, in Argentina, the stealing of babies born to doomed political dissidents. It is only in the last decade that these crimes have been brought to light so that the perpetrators can be brought to justice and nations deeply wounded can begin to heal.

  • A History of Political Murder in Latin America Clear of Conflict, Children Anywhere, and the Elderly—All These Have Been Its Victims
    Chapter 1 Targets and Victims His dance of death was famous. In 1463, Bernt Notke painted a life-sized, thirty-meter-long “Totentanz” that snaked around the chapel walls of the Marienkirche in Lübeck, the picturesque port town outside Hamburg in northern Germany. Individuals covering the entire medieval social spec- trum were represented, ranging from the Pope, the Emperor and Empress, and a King, followed by (among others) a duke, an abbot, a nobleman, a merchant, a maiden, a peasant, and even an infant. All danced reluctantly with grinning images of the reaper in his inexorable procession. Today only photos remain. Allied bombers destroyed the church during World War II. If Notke were somehow transported to Latin America five hundred years later to produce a new version, he would find no less diverse a group to portray: a popular politician, Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, shot down on a main thoroughfare in Bogotá; a churchman, Archbishop Oscar Romero, murdered while celebrating mass in San Salvador; a revolutionary, Che Guevara, sum- marily executed after his surrender to the Bolivian army; journalists Rodolfo Walsh and Irma Flaquer, disappeared in Argentina and Guatemala; an activ- ist lawyer and nun, Digna Ochoa, murdered in her office for defending human rights in Mexico; a soldier, General Carlos Prats, murdered in exile for standing up for democratic government in Chile; a pioneering human rights organizer, Azucena Villaflor, disappeared from in front of her home in Buenos Aires never to be seen again. They could all dance together, these and many other messengers of change cut down by this modern plague.

  • Cuba En Los Sesenta. Una Marca Indeleble En La Trayectoria De Rodolfo Walsh1
    Cuba en los sesenta. Una marca indeleble en la trayectoria de Rodolfo Walsh1 Carolina Castillo Miguel Ángel Taroncher Universidad Nacional de Mar de Plata [email protected] [email protected] Resumen: Hacia fines de los años cincuenta y diez años más tarde, en las postrimerías de la década del sesenta, Rodolfo Walsh viaja a Cuba, como muchos de los intelectuales de la época, para quienes la experiencia de la revolución y el trabajo a su servicio constituirán una marca insoslayable en el devenir de su historia personal y su desempeño profesional. En el caso particular de Walsh, dichas estadías significarán la posibilidad de madurar y confirmar ciertas ideas en el campo de la literatura, el periodismo, la política y la militancia. Palabras clave: Rodolfo Walsh, literatura argentina, Cuba Los hechos son conocidos por todos: la interpretació n de los hechos, por supuesto, ha sido desfigurada por toda la maquinaria de propaganda del régimen. Esa es la función de la prensa en un régimen capitalista: ocultar lo esencial, perderse en detalles; en otras palabras, no contribuir al esclarecimie nto de la verdad. John William Cooke Introducción: El autor y su contexto. Los años sesenta marcan el contexto internacional como una época de profundas transformaciones sociopolíticas y económicas. En los Estados Unidos, John Fitzgerald Kennedy estableció una nueva agenda pública donde convocaba a los ciudadanos a la empresa de una nueva frontera y a la integración social, a ocupar un rol dinámico en defensa de Occidente, a extender la ciencia, la paz, el progreso y el saber más allá de los límites conocidos hasta ese momento.

  • The Dirty War; Las Madres De Plaza De Mayo
    Anna Donovan 3-19-18 The Dirty War; Las Madres de Plaza de Mayo It is April 30, 1977, and the sky is gray, as it has been the last few months. One by one, a few women leave their quiet house and walk to the street silently. Fourteen depressed middle-aged women begin to march in pairs. A few strangers glance at them but quickly speed away in case they are thought to be associated with this particular group. Others, look at the brave women and begin to weep because of missing loved ones. All the women are wearing identical white headscarves to represent their children. Each lady is proudly holding their own designed sign. One poster reads “Niños Desaparecido”(Wulff), which translates to ‘missing children.’ In Argentina, these mothers were protesting the sudden disappearance of their children. It has been a few months since the military junta has kidnapped their family members. By circling the Plaza de Mayo, which is located in front of the presidential palace, the women are declaring their hatred for the military government. The mothers gained support once more women volunteered to protest the abduction of their own children. By joining the activist group known as “Las Madres de Plaza de Mayo”, the women in Argentina emphasized the importance of standing up for human rights. The mothers of the Plaza de Mayo created multiple protests in order to find their children; these women helped with the reconstruction of Argentina’s society, proved a significant moral impact, and transformed into a political group which aided the country in the transition to democracy.
