Norma Morandini
New generations
updated chide questions to history and added to the repertoire that already exists as a legacy. So the book "Never Again" should be seen for what it is: a historical document, almost the Bible of what happened to us. In the same way that the Bible was not rewritten but reinterprets the heat and color of the contingencies is that we should be respectful to those who overcome their own fear and, when few in the country are encouraged to want to know even opened that Pandora's box to be scattered among us all evil in the world. "Descended into hell," said Ernesto Sabato in all languages. It was "NEVER MAS "which served as the basis for a summary trial accusing the military junta, but above all was the report that dismantled the system of terror that made the missing persons a deliberate strategy to avoid testing at the time of the trials in court. When, in reality, the absence of bodies it is irrefutable proof that our country was illegal repression. A truth that complies with the ruling of the German philosopher Hannah Arendt: "The historical truths are not true in sense, and they are more tested, both its artificiality and its demonstration are contingent: the show is still historical in nature. Historical truths are only true, ie credible and universally binding if confirmed by the truths of reason. Thus, it must be the reason he has to decide on the necessity of a revelation, and hence on the story. "
What reason is there to amend the foreword of" never again "when, in reality, the need requires us to correct historical authoritarian culture bequeathed by the terror and culture incorporarcomo simple and irrefutable truth: the only thing that may violate human rights is one that should guarantee them. In other words, the state.
If politics is a fusion of society that expresses action, thought and speech, review the past was done in the courts, almost behind the restoration of democracy. When political words have been emptied because they express to society and therefore its lifecycle, often be borrowed from other areas of the human. And religion is always a great temptation. Nothing reveals better the political powerlessness against the monstrosities that were beginning to see the light of the biblical metaphor, the two demons who was simplified pacification strategy of democracy's first president, Raul Alfonsin. A false statement that derailed the last review of terror and marked the beginning of the gap between politics and society, because, as we have learned the great body he left us was the political dictatorship.
The same state that concealed the information bureaucratic repression, in the restoration of democracy is not officially a collective memory. In the same way that torture was not partisan or ideological differences, democracy should shelter under one umbrella to those who were doing the path of freedom, which is plural and not measured by the number of deaths from each party. The guerrilla insurgency that the State committed crimes should be punished to ensure fair trials and not become an executioner. The devil is just one: the violence to resolve differences. And if the war was so dear to the insurgency guerrilla and the military leaders, the comparison leads to another mistake to assume that wars are clean, fair or dirty. The last was in the hands of justice, but he evaded the political debate about the causes of the mess. And that is what is missing. Do not change a historical document and in his preface warns the political conditions of that time. If the past still causes anger or fear, what to delete on a text which is, in itself, evidence of military pressure on the first civilian government. The new generations corrected the story, as we see today have been called into question the texts that educated generations of Argentines have been tailor-made texts of the victors, with heroes frozen in bronze.
Modify the prologue of "never again" is like reinventing the Genesis of democracy, without the historical generosity is due to those who did what they could face a military power but threatening humiliated. Despite these limitations, sat on the bench of the accused to the leaders of the last dictatorship. That is the "NEVER AGAIN" a testament to that effort and courage, a testimonial document the worst time in modern history.
