This presentation explores the central role  played by  literary and artistic practices  in the process of transitional justice after dictatorship (1973-85),  through practices that intruded upon the official understanding of democratization as pacification, silence and impunity, and  attempted to rework the languages and  images used to make visible the human rights violations of the past and their long-lasting effects in the present.
