Description
Summary:This article aims to analyze some contemporary narratives through which children affected by political exile in the '70s narrate their experiences, re-creating the past from their present as adults. These new voices of exiled children emerge in the public space and come to recover the deep impact of exile in their subjectivities. Doing so, they open new horizons concerning memories of state terrorism, focusing on childhood exile in times of dictatorship.El presente artículo pretende rescatar y analizar algunas narrativas contemporáneas a través de las cuales los hijxs de los exiliados políticos de los años ’70 narran, y al hacerlo, re-crean esa experiencia exiliar infantil desde su presente adulto. Esta nueva voz, la de los exiliadxshijxs, emergió en el espacio público en los últimos 10 años y vino a dar cuenta del profundo impacto del exilio en estas subjetividades. Abrió así nuevos horizontes en torno a las memorias sobre el terrorismo de estado y los exilios, poniendo foco en las infancias en tiempos de dictadura.
