Abstract

This article analyses the escrache of the H.I.J.O.S. group and the publication Dibujos Urgentes as two examples of public practices of demands for justice that form testimonial strategies of social condemnation mobilising an important aesthetic device in their realisation and which are carried out by the generation[1] of the sons and daughters of disappeared and murdered during the Argentinean State terrorism.
