The origin of Sexual Violence in the Argentinean Crimes against
Humanity Trials: Rethinking Victimhood can be found in the
resistance that, using a traditional feminist perspective, alleges
that testimonies of sexual violence in the context of Argentinian
crimes against humanity trials inevitably re-victimize victims. It
is our understanding that such interpretation not only forgets to
pay attention to what victims have to say about their experiences
but also bases its allegation on dualistic and patronizing
conceptions of female agency. This book argues that the role of
affect in the experiences of those women who decided to testify as
well of those who refused to do it shows to be a useful tool in
order to analyze the sexual violence issue from a thought-provoking
and heterodox perspective. Cecilia Macon presents her argument
through philosophical debates paired with testimonies of victims
and analysis of works of art devoted to express these problems.
Recommended for scholars of Latin American studies, philosophy,
history, and sociology.
