The 'disappeared' in Argentina 1976–1980
In: Index on censorship, Band 9, Heft 3, S. 41-43
Abstract
We publish below a list of writers and journalists abducted by the security forces and numbered among the 'disappeared' in Argentina since 24 March 1976, the date of the military coup that installed General Jorge Rafael Videla in power. Two eye-witness accounts illustrate the way in which such abductions usually take place. Finally, Robert Cox, editor-in-exile of the daily newspaper Buenos Aires Herald, describes how independent-minded journalists and the families of los desaparecidos ( 'the disappeared') have been affected. The material is introduced by Index on Censorship's researcher on Latin America, Malcolm Coad.
