Os processos de anistia política no brasil: do perdão à “reparação”

Abstract

This article evaluates processes of political amnesty in Brazil focusing on struggles and meaning that are attributed to them, according to different historical moments, in order to determine the meaning of the socalled “reparation policies” to benefit the persecuted from the military dictatorship. I tries to identify the relations between group practices that organize themselves in search of monetary reparation or other form of “reparation” and the production of a specific legislation, it highlights self-reckoning by the State as an actor responsible for the torture, missing and death of Brazilians during the dictatorial government, by calling to itself the responsibility for some type of reparation for the survivors or families of the dead or missing.
