description This paper aims to analyze a series of heritage disputes around the former clandestine detention center (CDC) Information Service of Santa Fe’s state police department, located in Rosario city, which functioned between 1976 and 1980, during the last dictatorship. Considering heritage as a sacred laicized object and crossed by disputes, we delimited a period between 2015 and 2019 for the analysis, when the former CDC was inaugurated as Space of Memory. In this process, which involves the State, the Human Rights movement, and experts in materiality, we distinguished two aspects, which valorize it in different ways, as well as two related but opposite heritage intervention criteria. In this framework, the former CDC (des)sacralization, its characteristics, and possible practices have meaning situationally, according to the actors who carry them out. The problem is part of an ongoing doctoral research, developed through an ethnographic fieldwork since 2015, which includes participant observations and non-directive interviews, but also documentary and press analysis and photographic record.

El artículo se propone analizar una serie de disputas patrimoniales en torno al ex centro clandestino de detención (CCD) Servicio de Informaciones de la Policía de Santa Fe, ubicado en la ciudad de Rosario, que funcionó entre 1976 y 1980, durante la última dictadura. Considerando al patrimonio como objeto sagrado laicizado y atravesado por disputas, delimitamos para el análisis el período 2015-2019, cuando el ex CCD fue inaugurado como Espacio de Memoria. Sostenemos que, en el proceso que involucra tanto al Estado como al movimiento de derechos humanos y a expertos/as de la materialidad, pueden distinguirse dos aspectos que valorizan de manera diferente al ex CCD, así como dos criterios de intervención patrimonial que conviven y se tensionan entre sí. En ese marco, la (des)sacralización patrimonial del ex CCD, sus características y prácticas posibles adquieren sentido situacionalmente, de acuerdo a los/as actores que las llevan a cabo. El problema abordado forma parte de una investigación doctoral en curso, desarrollada mediante un trabajo de campo etnográfico que incluye observaciones participantes y entrevistas no dirigidas, acompañado de análisis documental, relevamiento periodístico y fotográfico.
