          Abstract

          El "familismo" y el "maternalismo" son criterios centrales de la atribución de legitimidad de la palabra pública en la Argentina post-dictatorial. Durante la dictadura (1976-1983), tanto los militares como el movimiento de derechos humanos utilizaron la matriz familiar para interpretar su lugar en la confrontación política. Las definiciones familísticas dominaron las organizaciones de derechos humanos ("Madres", "Abuelas", "Familiares", luego "Hijos" y "Herman@s"). A su vez, las pruebas de ADN para identificar niño/as secuestrado/as dieron a la genética un lugar privilegiado para expresar demandas basadas en la condición de "víctima". Esto plantea preguntas inquietantes sobre la relación entre estos criterios y la conformación de una noción amplia de igualdad ciudadana.

          Translated abstract

          "Family-ism" and "maternalism" have been key notions in legitimizing certain forms of public speech in post-dictatorship Argentina. During the 1976-1983 dictatorship, the military, as well as the human rights movement, used rhetoric of the family to interpret their place in public confrontation. Family-related definitions dominated human rights organizations ("Mothers", "Grandmothers", "Relatives", and so "Sons" and "Siblings"). On the other hand, DNA tests to identify children who had been kidnapped gave genetics a privileged role in demands based on victimhood. This process poses perturbing questions about the relation between these criteria and the forging of a more ample notion of citizens’ equality.
