description The article analyzes the manners in which the Argentine exiles appealed to the juridical strategy as form of antidictatorial resistance, departing from the denunciation of the functioning of the Judicial Power and the claim of respect of the rights and procedural fundamental guarantees, up to managing to propose a "Núremberg" in which the violations were proceeded to the human rights that were taking place in the country. The work supports that in the conjuncture delimited by the approval of the dictatorial laws on "missing persons" (September, 1979), the publication of the report of the visit to the Argentina of the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights of the Organization of American States (April, 1980) and the political alternatives that surroundedcommemoration of the 5th anniversary of the coup d'état (March 24, 1981), the exiles began to glimpse to the justice (national or international) as a horizon - diffuse but credibly - in that to look for punishment for the perpetrators of crimes against the life, the freedom and the integrity of the argentinians and especially for those responsible for most abject crime of the terrorist State: the enforced disappearance of persons.

El artículo analiza los modos en que los desterrados argentinos apelaron a la estrategia jurídica como forma de resistencia antidictatorial, partiendo de la denuncia del funcionamiento del Poder Judicial y del reclamo de respeto de los derechos y garantías procesales fundamentales, hasta llegar a proponer un “Núremberg” en el que fueran tramitadas las violaciones a los derechos humanos que se estaban produciendo en el país.El trabajo sostiene que en la coyuntura delimitada por la aprobación de las leyes dictatoriales sobre “desaparecidos” (septiembre 1979), la publicación del informe de la visita a la Argentina de la Comisión Interamericana de Derechos Humanos de la Organización de Estados Americanos (abril 1980) y las alternativas políticas que rodearon la conmemoración del 5º aniversario del golpe de Estado (marzo 1981), los exiliados comenzaron a vislumbrar a la justicia (nacional o internacional) como un horizonte –difuso pero creíble– en el que buscar castigo para los culpables de delitos contra la vida, la libertad y la integridad de los argentinos y en particular para los responsables del crimen más abyecto del Estado terrorista: la desaparición forzada de personas.
