Resumen
GARANO, Santiago. Citizen soldiers in combat : The construction of th e moral value of “sacrifice” in th e “Independencia ” Operation (tucumán, 1975-1977). Relaciones [online]. 2016, vol.41, n.1, pp.1-10. ISSN 0325-2221.
In this article, we analyze how the military authorities built and tried to impose the moral value of “sacrifice” among the conscripts sent to the Operation Independence. We wonder how was the moral code that sought to guide and condition the praxis of the soldiers built? Through which metaphors, institutional mandates, meanings and practices were the moral value of “sacrifice” encouraged? How was this emotional and moral legitimacy produced so that the soldiers were willing to give their lives in a context of political repression? To this end, we revisit some classics of anthropological theory on sacrifice, gift and debt, particularly Marcel Mauss, Henri Hubert as well as the rereading on them proposed by maurice Godelier (1998).
