| Sumario: | The return of democracy socially meant the building of a political promise of possible reparation for Argentine society. As a cultural project, it was capable to condense the widespread fantasies of justice and the desires for freedom that were seized by the cruel night of dictatorial terror. But the effects of subjectivation produced by the repressive imaginaries and especially, by their remnant in the public apparatus of political representation will give way to the articulation of underground structures of disillusionment in the margins of the new democratic common. Faced with the silent and shadowed permanence of the repressive power, enraged with the hypocrisy of political duty while distanced from modern utopian projects regarding the transformation of the real, a new matrix of alternative political action was conjugated: a type of sensibility connected with the anarchist heritage that will mostly make use of affects rendered negative like procrastination, grudge, chemical delirium, blasphemy and sexual debauchery as part of its privileged expressive language. The intersectional work of feminists, sex perverts, alcoholic poets, transhumant anarchists, punks, vagrants, sex workers, underground stars and other left melancholics has produced a series of events hitherto little revisited in the historiographies of the post-dictatorial Destape such as The Pagan March (1986) and the Commission in Repudiation of the Pope (1987). This presentation aims to value these experiences as paradigmatic cases in which these expressive languages based on the sensible power of disconformity and dissociation were implemented, operating as strange forms of reverie that rehearsed new affective repertoires for an antagonistic political imagination. |
