| Summary: | This study will focus on the sociopolitical function of the legal category of “subversive delinquent” or “terrorist delinquent” used in the 1970s in Argentina. More specifically, we will analyse the way the government tried to justify the disappearance and imprisonment of a part of the population during the dictatorship through the creation of the notion of “enemy à abattre” and its introduction into the social imagination which still remains in certain sectors of society. First we will focus on the way dictatorship rebuilt this figure using and adapting the concepts of “national security” and “subversion” which were already used since the beginning of the century in Argentina, and then, we will focus on the “legally justified” application of the punishment and of the large-scale terror. |
