Research: social history of crime; Modern Latin American History dealing with politics, justice history and memory; policies of judgment surrounding human right violations committed in Argentina (1976-1983).  I study the ways in which politics dealt with the past in the transition to democracy in Argentina, considering specifically how different images of the recent past, as well as the national past as a whole, were drawn through political dynamics in order to legitimize a new order. In this sense I consider the relationship between a new official history emerging through the process of democratic transition and different memories of a conflictive past.
