Abstract

Since the mid-’90s, the category “memory of state terrorism” was institutionalized through a series of laws and programs within the organization of the Gobierno de la Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires. Similarly, many human rigths’s militants were incorporated as managers, officials and employees, responsible for formulating and implementing it in urban space. In this article, we describe and analyze the main characteristics that has made the job of co-management between government agencies and human rights non-governmental organizations aimed at “preserving and promoting the memory”. And point out how the technical requirements of this work have been articulated in a particular way with those values associated with militancy in the field of DD.HH., as political commitment.
