| description | This article aims to contextualize and analyze historical records in the Navy’s General Archives (NGA). NGA documentation is mostly related to daily instructions and member’s files. Of particular interest for our investigation were the historical sources regarding the indigenous concentration camp that took place in Martín García Island before, during and after the military campaigns on the territories of Pampa, Patagonia and Chaco. Physical elimination and territorial dispossession practices have been complemented by strong policies of social deconstruction, family ties destruction, manpower alienation, cultural identity denial, forced redistribution, etc. The following are the two central issues to be addressed when trying to explain the genocide mechanisms in this context: (a) the different ways of controls and physical exploitation in Martín García and (b) the methods used to distribute indigenous people. This work´s goal is to analyze the Argentinean genocide praxis through particular documents embedded in a major and longer social and historical process. These files are the evidence of the destination for those indigenous taken to the concentration camp in the island, but also of the systematic ways of abuse and control perpetrated in this genocide framework. |
