La apuesta productiva del Operativo Independencia (Tucumán, 1975-1977) Garaño, Santiago Operation Independence - Sovereignty - State Terrorism In this essay we will analyse the last stages of “Operation Independence”, which consisted in the building of a road that linked four towns named after military personnel killed in the so-called “fight against subversion”, in the foothills of Tucumán. The case sheds some light over the twofold nature of repressive power: not only violent and disciplinary but also productive of new social relationships and new spatial changes in the area of the Tucuman hills. From this perspective, we argue that Operation Independence became a way toarticulate an effective and sovereign domain over an area that lacked state presence, signed by a dispute with rural guerrillas over land control. However, this article does not focus on the forms of repression used in thesouth of Tucuman during Operation Independence. Rather, it pays particular attention to the productive aspects that aimed to create a new order in the Tucuman hills, which had paramount importance for state terrorism. En este trabajo analizaremos una de las últimas fases del Operativo Independencia, que consistió en la construcción de una ruta en el pedemonte que conectaba cuatro pueblos que llevaban nombres de personal militar “caído” en la llamada “lucha contra la subversión”. Consideramos que será iluminador de esa doble faceta del poder represivo: violenta y disciplinante pero al mismo tiempo también productiva de relaciones sociales y de nuevas espacialidades. Desde esta perspectiva, sostendremos que el Operativo Independencia se convirtió en una manera de articular un dominio soberano y efectivo sobre un espacio donde había habido un déficit de presencia estatal y había estado marcado por una disputa por el control territorial por parte del frente de guerrilla rural. Sin embargo, antes que en las modalidades represivas que adoptó la represión en el sur tucumano durante el Operativo Independencia, en este trabajo nos centraremos en la faceta productiva que buscó crear un nuevo espacio, un nuevo “monte tucumano” y sostendremos que fue fundacional para el terrorismo de estado.
