Accounts of the last military dictatorship (1976-1983), which was responsible for the disappearance of thousands of people of Jewish origin, have contributed to this image. Memories that Lie a Little , however, challenges this view, shedding new light on Jewish experiences during the military dictatorship. Based on extensive archival research, it maps the positions of a wide range of Jewish organizations toward the military regime, opening the way for a better understanding of this complex historical period. If, then, the dictatorship was not actually anti-Semitic in the strictest sense of the term, why is it remembered as such? Historical research is complemented here by a reconstruction of the ways in which the notion of the regime?s anti-Semitism was crafted from early on, and an examination of its uses, as well as the changes that this narrative underwent in the following years. 410 0$aJewish Latin America$v11. 606 $aAntisemitism$zArgentina$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aJews$zArgentina$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPolitical culture$zArgentina$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aArgentina$xPolitics and government$y1955-1983 615 0$aAntisemitism$xHistory 615 0$aJews$xHistory 615 0$aPolitical culture$xHistory 676 $a305.892408209047 700 $aKahan$b Emmanuel Nicola?s$f1977-$01731826 702 $aFoster$b David William 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910838258403321 996 $aMemories that lie a little$94144952 997 $aUNINA
