Abstract

This article problematizes the uses of the “cultural genocide” in the languages of denunciation of the Spanish anti-Franco and the last Argentina military dictatorship exiles. It starts from the hypothesis that between 1953 and 1981 both exiles agitated that notion appealing either to its legal contents  to its controversial, tactical or rhetorical potential, and to the service of different causes. The article is organized in three parts. The first two deal with the questions of who used that notion, in what spaces and with what effects within the field of antidictatorial opposition. The third reconstructs the contexts of use, emphasizing the moments of exiled collective action, and the different dictatorial conjunctures.
