Las huellas de las luchas por los derechos humanos: las Madres y las Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo en el feminismo peronista de Córdoba

Article

Summary

Forty years after the return to democracy, it is imperative to reflect on the drifts of the human rights discourse in Argentina, since it has been a surface of inscription of various struggles since the democratic transition in the 1980s to the present day. In this context, the Madres and Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo have had a singular link with the Argentine women’s and feminist’ movement. From a post-foundational, anti-essentialist and relational reading, this article aims to trace the marks of the viejas in the Peronist militancy of the Province of Córdoba that, after the Ni Una Menos of June 3, 2015, are identified in “popular feminism”. To do so, first, we briefly present their conditions of possibility of such an articulation and then we pose the ways in which they are inscribed in Córdoba’s feminist Peronist militancy. We conclude that the Madres and Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo are recognized as an example of struggle and as a banner of militancy in the struggles for “truth, memory and justice” and the struggles against neoliberalism.
