Neste artigo faz-se uma análise comparativa entre as Madres de la Plaza de Mayo, daArgentina, e as Mães de Maio, no Brasil de hoje. As primeiras surgiram sob a última ditaduramilitar argentina, quando silenciosamente se reuniam na Praça de Maio para exigir respostassobre o desaparecimento de seus filhos militantes políticos e de seus netos arrancadosbarbaramente pelos mesmos torturadores. As segundas apareceram na cena política logodepois dos crimes de maio de 2006, período de democracia liberal consolidada e exaltada pormuitos, quando a polícia do estado de São Paulo promoveu a chacina de seus mais de 400filhos. Como as primeiras, estas também são consideradas loucas por exigirem respostas doEstado brasileiro sobre o assassinato de seus entes. 2012-12-19 2022-03-17T18:04:07Z 2022-03-17T18:04:07Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/ls/article/view/18502 10.23925/ls.v0i29.18502 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/49789 por https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/ls/article/view/18502/13695 application/pdf Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo Lutas Sociais; n. 29 (2012): Barricadas Urbanas; 130-143 2526-3706 1415-854X 10.23925/ls.v0i29
