El carácter sexo-genérico de la represión estatal en la Argentina de la década del setenta.

Abstract

Starting from the idea that the sexual repression carried out by the last Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983) had a structural and systematic character, in this paper we will analyze how the generic sex character of the repression was manifested in the dimensions legal / illegal, visible / hidden of the state repressive plot. For this we start from the hypothesis that the policies of destruction of the generic subjectivity that the regime practiced in a hidden way in the spaces of confinement -legal and illegal- were the counterpart of what the military authorities cried out in their public speeches, where they had restorative preaching of gender roles, “appropriates” to a hypothetical Argentine culture derived from the Western and Christian tradition.
