| Abstract | Resumen Sostenida particularmente durante la presidencia de Raul Alfonsin (1983-1989), la “teoria de los dos demonios es considerada la memoria hegemonica-dominante referida a la ultima dictadura civico-militar argentina (1976-1983). A su vez, el Informe de la Comision Nacional sobre la Desaparicion de Personas (CONADEP) el “Nunca Mas”, suele ser considerado una expresion de dicha memoria. Segun nuestra hipotesis, el “Nunca Mas” no suscribe la “teoria de los dos demonios” sino una memoria diferente aunque no antitetica. El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en caracterizar ambos conjuntos de representaciones con el fin de senalar las diferencias entre ellos. Nuestro corpus de analisis incluye como fuentes primarias los escritos y declaraciones de Alfonsin relativos al tema asi como tambien el Prologo del “Nunca Mas” presentado en 1984. Dado que la autoria de este ultimo es atribuida a Ernesto Sabato, presidente de la CONADEP, tambien se consideran algunas declaraciones del mencionado autor. Dichas fuentes primarias son historicamente contextualizadas a partir del uso de fuentes secundarias, dentro de las cuales incluimos el estado del arte relativo a la “teoria de los dos demonios”. Concluimos que si bien el planteo de Alfonsin y el Prologo original del “Nunca Mas” coinciden en el rechazo a la violencia como medio de expresion politica, Alfonsin pone en un plano de igualdad a dos actores: el guerrillerismo izquierdista y el golpismo, mientras que el Prologo critica tres modalidades de violencia: la guerrilla, el terrorismo paraestatal de derecha, actor no mencionado por Alfonsin, y el terrorismo dictatorial. Between two demons and three violences: Alfonsin’s administration and the senses of the state terrorism memory in contemporary Argentina Abstract Particularly held during Raul Alfonsin’s presidency (1983 – 1989), “the theory of the two demons” is considered the dominant-hegemonic memory referred to the last Argentine civic-military dictatorship (1976 – 1983). In turn, the report of the National Commission on the Disappearance of Persons (CONADEP)- “Nunca Mas” (Never Again) is usually considered an expression of the aforesaid memory. According to our hypothesis, “Nunca Mas” does not subscribe to the “theory of the two demons” but to a different memory – though not antithetical. The aim of the current paper consists of characterizing both groups of representations in order to point out the differences between them. Our corpus of analysis includes as main sources Alfonsin’s documents and statements concerned with the issue, as well as the “Nunca Mas” prologue, presented in 1984. Some statements of Ernesto Sabato, CONADEP’s president, are also considered due to the fact that the authorship of the latter work mentioned has been attributed to him. Such primary sources are historically contextualized from the use of secondary sources, which within we include the state of the art relative to “the theory of the two demons”. We conclude that even though Alfonsin’s proposal and the original “Nunca Mas” prologue coincide in the rejection of violence as a means of political expression, Alfonsin places in an equal position two actors – the left-wing guerrilla and the coup – while the prologue criticizes 3 violence modalities: the guerrilla, the right-wing semi-official terrorism – actor not mentioned by Alfonsin – and the dictatorial terrorism. |
