CASTILLO TRONCOSO, Alberto del. Some Reflections on Photojournalism and Dictatorship in Recent Argentinian Historiography. Secuencia [online]. 2016, n.96, pp.226-277. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i96.1411.

Photojournalism is a fundamental space for the study of the relationship between the image and the construction in public spaces of a collective memory in the years of the last Argentinian dictatorship. In this article, a significant portion of the research of Cora Gamarnik, the author of several articles on the issue, is analyzed. This article highlights the conceptual propositions and criticism of the sources underlying her contributions, and discusses the foundations for the interpretation of images concerning one of the most relevant episodes in recent Latin American history.
