| Sumario: | This article studies how, when, and why different groups and individuals delineated generational constructions that took May of 1969 -and other Mays in the early 1970s- as reference points. It will show that those generational constructions imply processes of representation in two senses. On the one hand, and especially for the five years that followed May of 1969, it reconstructs which groups (and with which political and cultural meanings) created a self-perception of being, for example, the “sons of the Cordobazo” and tried to represent an age group (youth) as well as a political position and situation. On the other hand, representation also refers to the tasks of social memory. In this respect, the article aims at identifying in which ways the generational constructions were transformed, for example, in the contexts of the commemorations of the late 1980s. In the last quarter of that decade, framed in commemorative processes (especially, the twentieth anniversary of the global revolts of 1968) and in the larger discussions over the legitimacy of concepts and programs related to the “revolutions”, some memories of political militancy emerged in close association with generational positions. |
