Tomando el caso de la documentación del terrorismo de estado por la sociedad civil chilena durante la última dictadura militar en Chile (1973-1990), y profundizando en la re-conceptualización de los archivos impulsada por el reciente "giro de los archivos", este artículo describe nuestra propuesta de incluir otra escala y nivel de indagación en la investigación en archivos (de derechos humanos). Esto permite interrogar el acto documental, los artefactos y recursos técnicos que lo median, junto a las trasposiciones que re-inscriben lo enunciado en el futuro y en diversas arenas. Al mismo tiempo, y a diferencia de la lectura convencional que signa a los archivos como tecnologías de gobierno de poblaciones, proponemos que el archivo también puede constituir una tecnología de resistencia.

The connection between personal story and morality has been long enunciated, but remains under-researched. Combining moral and narrative theory, this article approaches this relation by introducing a line of narrative inquiry oriented towards the exploration of how ethical intentions with regard to the good life manifest in and shape the biographical storyline and the self narratively assembled. The analysis encompasses a first case-based stage focused on the examination of the main motive of the personal story and its effects upon the organization of both self and narrative, followed by a comparative phase in which storylines and moral motives that work as reference of a set of biographical accounts belonging to different social positions, temporalities, or geographies are contrasted in order to establish linkages, breaks, and transformations in the relation between identity and morality across cases. This line of inquiry is applied into a research about intergenerational changes and continuities in the relation between selfhood and morality, based on life stories conducted with Chilean people of successive generations. In the conclusions, this strategy of narrative analysis is assessed in the light of current development of this field of qualitative social research.

Scholars have interpreted changes in sexual discourses from behaviouralist and structuralist perspectives, in the context of social movements, as expressions of power relations, among other approaches. This ar ticle advocates the study of shifting discourses of sexualities from the viewpoint of transformations in individuals' moral orientations over time. To this end, thematically, the article recovers Foucault's view of sexuality as a field of moral self-formation; conceptually, it follows Taylor and examines selfhood through the person's moral sources. The article uses this framework to observe reformulations in sexual narratives across three generations of Chilean women. From grandmothers' stories to granddaughters' accounts, this analysis identifies a deactivation of the equation between being a 'good woman' and sexual disengagement. This movement reveals a change in the moral principle regulating Chilean women's sexualities (from a morality of decency to one of authenticity) and a displacement of moral authority from the community to the person.

Studies show that the state plays a positive role in shaping conditions for entrepreneurship and promoting economicgrowth through entrepreneurial activity. However, the question of how state intervention in entrepreneurshipis justified in neoliberal regimes has received scant attention, although it can legitimize public policies. We examinethe entrepreneurial slant of the Production and Commerce Development Corporation of Chile (CORFO), whichimplements regulations and grants financial support to startups. Analyzing interviews with CORFO's state officials,public statements, and official documentation, we review the advent of state-led entrepreneurial policy andexplore the post-dictatorial government's principles justifying current state policy. This policy relies on doublede-politicization: i) divesting entrepreneurship from political affiliation and ii) propagating a meritocratic rhetoricof social and individual development, oblivious of structural inequalities. We argue that this is functional for thisregime as long as it guarantees state intervention in entrepreneurship as a policy of common good. ; A literatura sobre a relação entre estado e empreendedorismo mostra que o estado possui um papel positivo na configuração das condições para empreendedorismo e promoção do crescimento econômico por meio da atividade empresarial. No entanto, a questão de como a intervenção estatal é justificada no empreendedorismo em regimesneoliberais tem recebido pouca atenção, apesar de legitimar políticas públicas. No presente estudo, analisando entrevistas com autoridades estatais da Corporação de Desenvolvimento de Comércio e Produção Chilena (CORFO), declarações públicas e documentação oficial, examinamos o advento das políticas pró-empreendedorismo noneoliberal Chile e exploramos os princípios que justificam a política do estado nos governos pós-ditatoriais. Essa política estabelece uma dupla despolitização: i) despojar o empreendimento de filiação política e ii) difundir uma retórica meritocrática imbuída de desenvolvimento social, autorrealização e cega às desigualdades estruturais. Argumentamos que a intervenção no empreendedorismo se justifica como uma política para o bem comum.

ABSTRACT Studies show that the state plays a positive role in shaping conditions for entrepreneurship and promoting economic growth through entrepreneurial activity. However, the question of how state intervention in entrepreneurship is justified in neoliberal regimes has received scant attention, although it can legitimize public policies. We examine the entrepreneurial slant of the Production and Commerce Development Corporation of Chile (CORFO), which implements regulations and grants financial support to startups. Analyzing interviews with CORFO's state officials, public statements, and official documentation, we review the advent of state-led entrepreneurial policy and explore the post-dictatorial government's principles justifying current state policy. This policy relies on double de-politicization: i) divesting entrepreneurship from political affiliation and ii) propagating a meritocratic rhetoric of social and individual development, oblivious of structural inequalities. We argue that this is functional for this regime as long as it guarantees state intervention in entrepreneurship as a policy of common good.
