Understanding the various meanings given to human and citizenship
rights in Argentina is an important task, particularly so given the
nation's prominence in global discussions. An "exporter" of
tactics, ideas, and experts, Argentina has become a site of
innovation in the field of human rights. This book investigates two
prominent Buenos Aires protest organizations--Memoria Activa and
the BAUEN workers' cooperative--to consider how each has framed its
demands within a language of rights.
Fundamentally, this book is concerned with the complex
interrelationship between the discourse of human rights and the
neoliberal project. In exploring the way in which "rights talk" is
used and adapted locally by various activist groups, the book looks
at the mutually formative and contentious interactions between
ideas of human rights, rights of citizenship, and the concrete and
envisioned social relationships that form the basis for social
activism in the wake of neoliberalism.
