This edited volume provides a comprehensive overview of the renewal of academic engagement in the Argentinian dictatorship in the context of the post-2001 crisis. Significant social and judicial changes and the opening of archives have led to major revisions of the research dedicated to this period. As such, the contributors offer a unique presentation to an English-speaking audience, mapping and critiquing these developments and widening the recent debates in Argentina about the legacy of the dictatorship in this long-term perspective. Juan Grigera is Lecturer in the Political Economy of Development at the Department of International Development, King's College London, UK. He was previously British Academy Research Fellow at the Institute of Americas, University of London, UK. Luciana Zorzoli is CONICET Fellow at the Instituto de Investigaciones en Humanidades y Ciencias Sociales (IdIHCS) in the National University of La Plata (UNLP), Argentina, as well as Research Associate at SOAS, University of London, UK.
