| Sumario: | This article stems from a dialogue surrounding our current ethnographic research at the Provincial Memory Archive of Córdoba (APM) in Argentina. Although our subjects of study and research documents are different, we have found points of connection that have enabled us to write this collaborative piece. Thus, we are interested in exploring how, at present, the documents and archives to which they belong enable various uses and questions, focusing on the question of how identity is constructed from various documentary records, particularly those relating to people who disappeared or were murdered during the country’s last dictatorship (1976-1983). Through a comparative reading of both corpora, we aim to bring our objects of study closer to the reader, engage them in dialogue, and reflect on issues that we consider fundamental, such as the dimensions of inquiry that these documents in the APM enable today, the ethical implications of their use, and the way in which identities are constructed from them. |
