| description | This work continues the investigation of bureaucratic practices aimed at disciplining and repressing the workers of the Córdoba public administration in the period between the police coup, known as “Navarrazo”, which removed the governor and deputy governor (February 28, 1974 ) and the first three years of the dictatorship established by the National Reorganization Process (PRN, March 24, 1976). During this period, various provisions were applied, such as the expendable law and the Public Employee Statute (1974) that later overlapped with “de facto laws” passed during the PRN, such as 5911 and 5913 (1976, down for reasons of security and expendability, respectively) with the purpose of "purifying" the public administration. The arbitrariness of the measures made use of profuse regulations and routine, bureaucratic and legalistic practices, which coexisted with illegal repression and State terrorism, which is reflected in the significant number of missing and murdered workers. Within this framework, we will focus on two aspects related to said practices: layoffs and resignations of personnel, which grew exponentially between 1976 and 1978. At the same time, we will provide new evidence on the close coordination between de facto authorities, their bureaucratic-administrative procedures and the intelligence services for the ideological persecution and repression of public employees. For this we resort, among others, to “secret documents” kept in the Government Archive of the Province of Córdoba). |

Este trabajo continúa la indagación sobre prácticas burocráticas orientadas al disciplinamiento y la represión de los trabajadores de la administración pública de Córdoba en el período que transcurre entre el golpe policial, conocido como “Navarrazo”, que destituyó al gobernador y vicegobernador (28 de febrero 1974) y los tres primeros años de la dictadura instaurada por el Proceso de Reorganización Nacional (PRN, 24 de marzo 1976). En ese período se aplicaron diversos dispositivos, como la ley de prescindibilidad y el Estatuto del Empleado Público (1974) que se solaparon luego con “leyes de facto” dictadas durante el PRN, tales como la 5911 y 5913 (1976, baja por razones de seguridad y prescindibilidad, respectivamente) con el propósito de “depurar” la administración pública. La arbitrariedad de las medidas se sirvió de una profusa normativa y de prácticas rutinarias, burocráticas y legalistas, que coexistieron con la represión ilegal y el terrorismo de Estado, de lo que da cuenta el importante número de trabajadores desaparecidos y asesinados. En ese marco, haremos foco en dos aspectos vinculados a dichas prácticas: las cesantías y las renuncias de personal, que crecieron exponencialmente entre 1976 y 1978. Paralelamente, aportaremos nueva evidencia sobre la articulación estrecha entre las autoridades de facto, sus procedimientos burocrático-administrativos y los servicios de inteligencia para la persecución ideológica y la represión de los empleados públicos. Para ello recurrimos, entre otros, a “documentos secretos” custodiados en el Archivo de Gobierno de la Provincia de Córdoba.
