| Sumario: | This article reconstructs the political and symbolic actions and interventions concerning children, focusing on Amnesty International in connection with human rights organizations in Argentina in the late 1970s. This paper identifies different phases in the awareness, perception, and attention given to violence against children and infants perpetrated by state terrorism in Argentina. It argues that, in this process, the visibility of children and infants increased, reaching a turning point with the International Year of the Child in 1979. These stages were an initial moment of visibility and problematization about the place of children under repression, which is still an open and challenging issue today. |
