Book Historia de la   ltima dictadura militar

Download or read book Historia de la ltima dictadura militar written by Gabriela Águila and published by Siglo XXI Editores. This book was released on 2023-03-01 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A más de cuatro décadas del golpe de Estado que le dio inicio, la dictadura militar de 1976-1983 sigue siendo objeto de interpretaciones y controversias. ¿Por qué hubo un golpe el 24 de marzo de 1976? ¿Hasta qué punto la dictadura fue una completa anomalía en una historia jalonada por intervenciones militares? ¿De qué tipo de dictadura se trató? ¿Es posible decir que cumplió sus objetivos, que "tuvo éxito"? ¿Qué se sabía sobre el ejercicio de la represión y las violaciones a los derechos humanos? ¿Qué papel tuvieron los civiles en la gestación del golpe y en el gobierno? ¿Qué actitudes adoptaron los actores políticos, sindicales, corporativos y cómo se comportó la sociedad? ¿Cuándo comenzaron a aparecer las críticas y las resistencias? Sin perder de vista que no hay una versión definitiva sobre ningún proceso histórico, Gabriela Águila construye una obra de síntesis actualizada, comprensiva y explicativa de la última dictadura. El relato empieza en los años del tercer peronismo, marcados por la conflictividad social, el aumento de la violencia política y represiva, y el creciente rol político de los militares. Capítulo a capítulo, la autora caracteriza las diferentes etapas del régimen, ya que la alternancia de presidentes y la cambiante integración de las Juntas fueron expresión de las facciones y las discrepancias que dividieron al gobierno a lo largo de esos años. Cada fase exhibió rasgos particulares en cuanto a los proyectos económicos, los vínculos con sectores sindicales, el ejercicio de la represión, las estrategias dirigidas a interpelar a la población. Al desplegar esa complejidad, la autora revela cómo, con excepción del plan represivo que se ejecutó a sangre y fuego, en muchos otros terrenos se implementaron políticas fragmentarias, limitadas o erráticas. Además, lejos de generalizar a partir de la realidad capitalina o bonaerense, pone el foco en lo que sucedía en otras provincias y localidades, visibilizando matices y zonas poco exploradas hasta ahora. Con claridad y precisión narrativa, atenta a los sectores de poder y también a lo que sucedía en la base de la sociedad, Gabriela Águila reconstruye la historia de la dictadura más feroz que tuvo la Argentina y, sin relativizar lo que significó como experiencia histórica, logra mostrar sus alcances, sus límites y sus fracasos.

Book Las dictaduras argentinas

Download or read book Las dictaduras argentinas written by Alejandro Horowicz and published by EDHASA. This book was released on 2023-12-05 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Diciembre de 1983 fue un corte definitivo? ¿Quedó la dictadura realmente atrás, repudiada por la sociedad en su conjunto? Para Horowicz, la Historia no obra con tanta disciplina institucional; opera por acumulación y efectos de largo plazo. Si en 1930, con el golpe de estado de Uriburu, se inicia un nuevo ciclo político, este libro demuestra que después de 1983, el hilo conductor de una cultura criminal de clase, creada y consolidada en décadas anteriores, sigue operando en la "democracia de la derrota" argentina. Intacta en sus objetivos, aunque no en sus métodos, se manifestó en las graves contradicciones del alfonsinismo, se exhibió sin tapujos durante el menemismo, e incluso bajo el gobierno de Fernando de la Rúa. Provocativo, potente, riguroso, Las dictaduras argentinas analiza de manera ejemplar la historia de este triunfo de una minoría que es, al mismo tiempo, la derrota y frustración de la mayoría de la sociedad. Con su usual precisión de arqueólogo y su agudeza para captar aquello que la mirada usual no detecta, Alejandro Horowicz descubre las estaciones de esa frustración. El plan económico de Federico Pinedo en la década del treinta; la represión de los setenta, cuidadosamente planificada por el Estado pero apoyada en los hechos por todos los partidos políticos; las inquietudes y apuestas político-literarias del grupo Sur; los presupuestos no asumidos del Nunca Más; la consumación de los objetivos de Martínez de Hoz, que llegan a su clímax durante el Plan de Convertibilidad en los noventa. Porque la historia política argentina no es una sucesión de gobiernos que se rectifican o continúan, sino el campo donde se oculta la verdadera lucha por el poder: el de una clase dominante que en la segunda mitad del siglo XX desmontó todo lo que se había gestado (o insinuado) en la primera mitad y podía cuestionar su dominio.

Book A History of Argentina in the Twentieth Century

Download or read book A History of Argentina in the Twentieth Century written by Luis Alberto Romero and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-26 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Argentina in the Twentieth Century, originally published in Buenos Aires in 1994, attained instant status as a classic. Written as an introductory text for university students and the general public, it is a profound reflection on the “Argentine dilemma” and the challenges that the country faces as it tries to rebuild democracy. Luis Alberto Romero brilliantly and painstakingly reconstructs and analyzes Argentina’s tortuous, often tragic modern history, from the “alluvial society” born of mass immigration, to the dramatic years of Juan and Eva Perón, to the recent period of military dictatorship. For this second English-language edition, Romero has written new chapters covering the Kirchner decade (2003–13), the upheavals surrounding the country’s 2001 default on its foreign debt, and the tumultuous years that followed as Argentina sought to reestablish a role in the global economy while securing democratic governance and social peace.

Book History Education and Historical Inquiry

Download or read book History Education and Historical Inquiry written by Bob Bain and published by IAP. This book was released on 2024-04-01 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inquiry plays a vital role in history as a discipline which constructs knowledge about the past and it is a vital organizing principle in history education in many countries around the world. Inquiry is also much debated, however, and although it has prominent contemporary advocates around the world, it also has prominent critics in education studies. This volume in the International Review of History Education explores the role of historical inquiry in history curricula and in history classrooms and addresses a series of linked questions, including the following: • What does historical inquiry mean in history classrooms? • What forms does classroom based historical inquiry take, and to what extent is it understood in differing ways in different contexts? • What do we know about the affordances and constraints associated with inquiry-based learning in history –what is the evidence of the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of inquiry based historical learning? We address these questions in the volume by presenting seventeen papers from eight different international contexts exploring historical inquiry that will be of interest both to history teachers, curriculum designers and history education researchers - seven papers from England, three from the US, two from Sweden and one each from Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Canada, and Singapore. The volume adds to our knowledge about teachers’ thinking about inquiry and teachers’ inquiry practices. It adds to our knowledge about the impact and value of inquiry in developing children’s’ historical learning. It also explores the challenges that implementing inquiry can present for history teachers and provides support for implementation and examples of successful practice. ENDORSEMENT: "A wonderful overview of the global story of historical inquiry. Canvassing everything from finding opportunities to teach history through all levels of education, through to the complexities of navigating different views on the past inside and outside of the classroom, History Education and Historical Inquiry provides a practical and empowering approach for educators around the world. Recommended reading for anyone who wants to feel the support of educators from around the world in strengthening the place of inquiry in complex times." — Marnie Hughes - Warrington, University of South Australia

Book Liberationist Christianity in Argentina  1930 1983

Download or read book Liberationist Christianity in Argentina 1930 1983 written by Pablo Bradbury and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023-02-14 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did liberationist Christianity develop in Argentina between the 1930s and early 1970s? And how did it respond to state terrorism during the Dirty War? How did liberation theology develop in Argentina between the 1930s and early 1970s? And how did it respond to state terrorism during the Dirty War? Understanding the movement to be dynamic and highly diverse, this book reveals that ecclesial and political conflicts, especially over Peronism and celibacy, were at the heart of the construction of a liberationist Christian identity, which simultaneously internalised deep tensions over its relationship to the Catholic Church. It first situates the rise of a revolutionary Christian impulse in Argentina within changes in society, in Catholicism and Protestantism and in Marxism in the 1930s, before analysing how the phenomenon coalesced in the late sixties into a coherent social movement. Finally, the book examines the responses of liberationist Christians to the intense period of repression under the presidency of Isabel Perón and the rule of the military junta between 1974 and 1983. By exploring these distinct responses and uncovering the heterogeneity of liberationist Christianity, the book offers a fresh analysis of a movement that occupies a major role in the popular memory of the period of state terror, and provides a corrective to narratives that depict the movement as monolithic or as a passive victim of the dictatorship.

Book The New Jewish Argentina  paperback

Download or read book The New Jewish Argentina paperback written by Adriana Brodsky and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congratulations to Adriana Brodsky and Raanan Rein whose edited volume has been chosen as the winner of the 2013 Latin American Jewish Studies Association Book Prize! The New Jewish Argentina aims at filling in important lacunae in the existing historiography of Jewish Argentines. Moving away from the political history of the organized community, most articles are devoted to social and cultural history, including unaffiliated Jews, women and gender, criminals, printing presses and book stores. These essays, written by scholars from various countries, consider the tensions between the national and the trans-national and offer a mosaic of identities which is relevant to all interested in Jewish history, Argentine history and students of ethnicity and diaspora. This collection problematizes the existing image of Jewish-Argentines and looks at Jews not just as persecuted ethnics, idealized agricultural workers, or as political actors in Zionist politics. "This book is a must-read for students and scholars interested in immigration to Latin America, Ethnic History, and Jewish Studies, but its readership could extend to anybody who is interested in this chapter of social and cultural history." Ariana Huberman, Haverford College

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Argentina's missing bones: revisiting the history of the dirty war examines the history of state terrorism during Argentina's 1976-83 military dictatorship in a single place: the industrial city of Córdoba, Argentina's second largest city and the site of some of the dirty war's greatest crimes. It examines the city's previous history of social protest, working-class militancy, and leftist activism as an explanation for the particular nature of the dirty war there. Argentina's missing bones examines both national and transnational influences on the counter-revolutionary war in Córdoba. The book also considers the legacy of this period and examines the role of the state in constructing a public memory of the violence and holding those responsible accountable through the most extensive trials for crimes against humanity to take place anywhere in Latin America"--Provided by publisher.

Book Rethinking Testimonial Cinema in Postdictatorship Argentina

Download or read book Rethinking Testimonial Cinema in Postdictatorship Argentina written by Verónica Garibotto and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For roughly two decades after the collapse of the military regime in 1983, testimonial narrative was viewed and received as a privileged genre in Argentina. Today, however, academics and public intellectuals are experiencing "memory fatigue," a backlash against the concepts of memory and trauma, just as memory and testimonial films have reached the center of Argentinian public discourse. In Rethinking Testimonial Cinema in Postdictatorship Argentina, Verónica Garibotto looks at the causes for this reticence and argues that, rather than discarding memory texts for their repetitive excess, it is necessary to acknowledge them and their exhaustion as discourses of the present. By critically examining how trauma theory and subaltern studies have previously been applied to testimonial cinema, Garibotto rereads Argentinian films produced since 1983 and calls for an alternate interpretive framework at the intersection of semiotics, theories of affect, scholarship on hegemony, and the ideological uses of documentary and fiction. She argues that recurrent concepts—such as trauma, mourning, memory, and subalternity—miss how testimonial films have changed over time, shifting from subaltern narratives to official, hegemonic, and iconic accounts. Her work highlights the urgent need to continue to study these types of narratives, particularly at a time when military dictatorships have become entrenched in Latin America and memory narratives proliferate worldwide. Although Argentina is Garibotto’s focus, her theory can be adapted to other contexts in which narratives about recent political conflicts have shifted from alternative versions of history to official, hegemonic accounts—such as in Spanish, Chilean, Uruguayan, Brazilian, South African, and Holocaust testimonies. Garibotto’s study of testimonial cinema moves us to pursue a broader ideological analysis of the links between film and historical representation.

Book A Modern History of Forgotten Genocides and Mass Atrocities

Download or read book A Modern History of Forgotten Genocides and Mass Atrocities written by Jeffrey S. Bachman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-01 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first textbook of its kind to amass cases of genocide and other mass atrocities across the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries that have largely been pushed to the periphery of Genocide Studies or “forgotten” altogether. Divided into four thematic sections – Genocide and Imperialism; War and Genocide; State Repression, Military Dictatorships, and Genocide; and Human-Caused Famine, Attrition, and Genocide – A Modern History of Forgotten Genocides and Mass Atrocities covers five continents, including case studies from Biafra, Yemen, Argentina, Russia, China, and Bengal. They range from the French conquest of Algeria in the mid-nineteenth century to the Yazidi genocide perpetrated by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria between 2014 and 2017, and show that at times of rising authoritarianism, military conquest, and weaponization of hunger, lines between what is war and what is genocide are increasingly blurred. By including genocides and mass atrocities that are often overlooked, this volume is crucial to the ongoing debates about whether “this atrocity or that one” amounts to genocide. By including key points, events, terms, and critical questions throughout, this is the ideal textbook for undergraduate students who study genocide, mass atrocities, and human rights across the globe.

Book Uruguay in Transnational Perspective

Download or read book Uruguay in Transnational Perspective written by Pedro Cameselle-Pesce and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-28 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of the world knows Uruguay only for its soccer team, or its vaunted title as the "Switzerland of South America," an enduring moniker given to the country for its earlier social welfare policies and relative stability. Even many scholarly narratives of Latin America fail to integrate the country into historical accounts, reducing the country to, as one historian has explained, "a periphery within the periphery that is Latin America." This volume challenges that characterization, taking one of the most innovative small states in the region and analyzing its transnational influence on the world. Uruguay in Transnational Perspective takes a broad look at the country’s three-hundred-year history, connecting imperial practices and resistance, Afro-Latin movements, and feminist firebrands, among others to understand how the country and its citizens have influenced and shaped regional and global historical narratives in a way that has thus far been overlooked. With a true collaboration between scholars of the Global North and Global South, the volume is both transnational in its scholarly focus and its production. Its interdisciplinary nature offers a broad range of perspectives from leading scholars in the field to re-evaluate Uruguay’s impact on the global stage.

Book Argentina   s Right Wing Universe During the Democratic Period  1983   2023

Download or read book Argentina s Right Wing Universe During the Democratic Period 1983 2023 written by Gisela Pereyra Doval and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Argentina’s Right-Wing Universe During the Democratic Period provides a comprehensive analysis of the course of right-wing politics in the country in the last 40 years. In 1983, after the fall of a violent military regime, Argentina began the longest period of democratic stability in its history—40 years marked by economic, institutional, social and political crises. This book examines the trajectory of the different right-wing organisations and ideological developments during these years, seeking to understand both the distinctions and the continuities that lie beneath its metamorphoses. Argentina has always acted as a laboratory in which to appreciate how the major problems and questions that concern those who have studied the right-wing in recent decades are translated into a particular political culture. In an international scenario marked by the social and political growth of different right-wing movements, some of which pose a threat to liberal democracies, the study of the Argentine case can provide greater clarity and a different perspective on problems that transcend this specific national case. This book will be of interest to scholars of Argentinian and Latin American politics and history, as well as specialists on the comparative politics of the radical right.
