CANELO, Paula Vera. El guerrero y el técnico. Albano Harguindeguy y su relato sobre la represión y los desaparecidos (Argentina, 1976-2012). Sociohistórica [online]. 2019, n.43, pp.77-77. ISSN 1852-1606.  http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.24215/18521606e077.

The article analyzes the public word of Albano Harguindeguy about the repression of the last Argentine civil-military dictatorship and about the disappeared, between 1976 and 2012. For this, he resorts to the conceptual axes that Feld and Salvi (2016) propose to address the repressors´ declarations. First, the work identifies the characteristics of Harguindeguy's public story: what he said and what he could not stop saying about the repression and the disappeared. Secondly, it analyzes the link that he built towards that story, in terms of his own responsibility and that of the Armed Forces: repentance, justification, vindication, etc. Finally, it explains what the main conditions of possibility of this story were: the unequal positions occupied by Harguindeguy between 1976 and 2012, the transition from dictatorship to democracy, and the unsteadiness between impunity and justice typical of the Argentine scene of the last thirty-five years.

Palabras clave : Harguindeguy; Repression; Disappeared; Ministry of the interio; Ministry of the interior; Ruiz Palacios.
