RAMA, Cristian. The reappearance of Alicia Partnoy: History of a survivor exile from clandestine detention spaces during the last dictatorship in Argentina (1976-1983). Av. Cesor [online]. 2019, vol.16, n.21, pp.83-103. ISSN 1514-3899.

Through the case study of Alicia Partnoy’ exile in the United States (1979-1983), this article examines different problems related to public denunciations of survivors of clandestine detention during the last Argentine dictatorship (1976-1983) (who later exiled) in a context of intense activism in transnational human rights networks (1979-1981). The aim is to observe the importance of the structures of social and political insertion in exile and the bond building in a humanitarian key in order to achieve a legitimated public exposure. In addition, the article analyzes the development of different political practices carried out by Alicia and the centrality of her detention experience in Argentina during the de facto government. Also, it is intended to address the way in which the context of production of that militancy influenced her subjective and identity reinstating. Finally, the analysis of her history allows to examine some vicissitudes in the building of the “legitimacy” of the testimony of the clandestine detention center survivor in exile.
