ESPERANZA, Marcia. ALMOST THE TRUTH: SILENCE AND SECRETS IN GENERAL AUGUSTO PINOCHET'S POST-DICTATORSHIP, CHILE. Antipod. Rev. Antropol. Arqueol. [online]. 2007, n.5, pp.121-141. ISSN 1900-5407.

Ourstudy, AlmosttheTruth: Silences and Secrets in General Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship in Chile, examines intelligentsia, militaryand civilian staff's judicial testimonies, accused of participating in crimes committed during the Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship (1973-1990). Our aim is to interrogate the social role played by this silence influenced, we argue, by a persisting military culture. In these confessions, we identify subordination to the Armed Forces and not the acknowledgement for responsibilities for the crimes committed.

Palabras clave : Truth; Commissions; Silence; Post; dictatorship; Military Culture.
