Thousands of people died in Rotterdam during the Second World War in more than
300 German and Allied bombardments. Civil defence measures had been taken before
the German invasion of the Netherlands in May 1940 and these efforts were
intensified during the country's occupation as Allied bombers attacked
Rotterdam's port, factories, dry docks and oil terminals. Residential
neighbourhoods were also hit through imprecise targeting and by misfired flak
grenades. Inadequate air raid shelters and people's reluctance to enter
them caused many casualties. The condition of the corpses and their post-mortem
treatment was thus co-constituted by the relationship between the victims and
their material circumstances. This article concludes that an understanding of
the treatment of the dead after war, genocide and mass violence must pay
systematic attention to the materiality of death because the condition,
collection and handling of human remains is affected by the material means that
impacted on the victims.

This article compares the combat motivation of Argentinian troops against guerrilla insurgents in a 1975-80 domestic counter-insurgency war with the performance of Argentinian soldiers against British forces in the 1982 Falklands war. The comparison reveals that the willingness to fire and fight differs from the desire to enter into war, and that combat motivation is not determined exclusively by mental preparedness, professional training and superior armament, but depends as much on shifting motivations and dynamic social and political circumstances during the armed conflict. Furthermore, combat motivation is also affected by the type of warfare conducted, and is only given meaning during a pause in the hostilities, when the desire to continue fighting is reassessed.
The Argentine dirty war that raged from 1976 to 1983 was a massive assault on the foundation of the social contract. The violence unleashed penetrated deep into the homes of the Argentine people, and disrupted the relations of protection, safety, trust, and love that dwelled there. Nearly two thirds of all disappeared were abducted at home. I shall argue that the disappearances carried out in the intimacy of the home invaded the primary object-relation of parent and child, and provoked intense guilt feelings among the surviving parents about having failed to protect their adult and adolescent children. It was at this intersection of the political and domestic domain that parental trust and protection became mobilized. I shall conclude that the politicization of the dead by the military led mothers to cope with their separation anxiety either by a projective search for the human remains or by an introjective vindication of the revolutionary ideals embraced by many disappeared before their abduction. ; La guerra sucia argentina, que tuvo lugar entre 1976 y 1983, fue un ataque masivo hacia los fundamentos del contrato social. La violencia desatada penetró profundamente en los hogares de los argentinos, irrumpiendo en las relaciones de protección, seguridad, confianza y amor que descansaban en ellos. Casi dos tercios de los desaparecidos fueron secuestrados en sus hogares. En este trabajo, argumentaré que las desapariciones que tuvieron lugar en la intimidad del hogar invadieron la relación objetal primaria de padres e hijos, provocando intensos sentimientos de culpa entre los padres sobrevivientes por haber fallado a la hora de proteger a sus hijos adultos o adolescentes. Fue en esta intersección entre el dominio político y el doméstico que la confianza y la protección parental se vieron movilizadas. Y concluiré en que la politización de los muertos por la dictadura llevó a las madres a lidiar con su ansiedad por la separación ya sea a través de una búsqueda proyectiva de los restos humanos, o a través de una reivindicación introyectiva de los ideales revolucionarios que levantaban muchos de los desaparecidos antes de ser secuestrados. ; A guerra suja argentina, que ocorreu entre 1976 e 1983, foi um ataque massivo para os fundamentos do contrato social. A violência penetrou profundamente nos lares dos argentinos, irrompendo as relações de proteção, segurança, confiança e amor que existia entre eles. Quase dois terços dos desaparecidos foram seqüestrados em seus lares.
