Gegenstand des Beitrags sind die gewandelten Erinnerungen an die Diktatur in Argentinien und an die Verschwundenen. Analysiert werden der soziale Kontext, die politischen Interessen und die Strategien unterschiedlicher Akteure im Prozess der sozialen Konstruktion dieser Erinnerungen. In den ersten fünf Jahren nach der Diktatur waren es vor allem die politischen Eliten, die das Image der Verschwundenen prägten und ihre Sicht der Jahre unter der Militärregierung propagierten.

'This article focuses on the changing public memories of the Argentinian dictatorship and of the disappeared. It analyses the social context, the political interests, and the strategies of different agents in the processes of the social construction of these memories. It will be shown that in the first years after the dictatorship it were mainly the political elites that tried to shape the image of the disappeared and to impose their view on the years of military government. After the unsuccessful struggle of the Human Rights Movement against impunity, the victims of state terrorism took a more active role in the public debate. This led not only to a change in discourse but also to a modification of the content of the public memories. As legal justice has been denied to the victims of repression, they try to achieve at least historical justice.' (author's abstract)|... view less
