CHAO, Daniel. “Mobilized” to Malvinas in Chaco and Corrientes: The fights for recognition in comparative perspective. Sociohistórica [online]. 2017, n.39, pp.00-00. ISSN 1852-1606.

This article discusses two cases -from provinces of Chaco and Corrientes- of the struggles of ex- "mobilized" soldiers to be recognized by local laws as veterans of the Malvinas War. I propose to address in comparative perspective the processes of presentation of bills for pensions and for historical and moral recognition, which were accompanied by protest actions in the public space between 2006 and 2011. I divide the analysis in three dimensions (identity, strategic-legal and strategic-political) focusing on the relationship between sub-national states, involved social movements and the problem of recognition. I conclude by pointing out that the character of war veterans claimed by the "mobilized" is far from being achieved and that the degree of local state recognition depends on the complexity of the network of political relationships involved in each case
