Resumen
Descripción
Las condiciones de interlocución del debate intelectual y político, así como modos de producción y legitimación del conocimiento sobre la violencia desaparecedora, están significativamente influidas por los aparatos conceptuales con los que se ha explicado, desde la historia la sociología, el Holocausto. De tal modo que, las investigaciones locales retoman la tensión clásica según la cual la violencia nazi puede ser entendida como producto de la sociedad moderna y racional del Estado Nación o como epifenómeno de prácticas y creencias históricamente reprimidas por ésta. En tal sentido, el presente artículo pretende, a partir de las diferentes maneras de interpretar la relación entre genocidio y modernidad, avanzar en el análisis de otros puntos controversiales tales como: el papel del Estado, la naturaleza de violencia, la relación víctima-victimario, la responsabilidad de los perpetradores, las forma de victimización y el vínculo genocida-sociedad.
The conditions of political and intelectual debate as well as the mode of production and legitimation of the knowledge about the violence of genocide has been significantly influenced by the conceptual frameworks used to explain, from history and sociology, The Holocaust. Local research on this subject continues the tradition which understands nazi violence as the outcome of the rising modern and rational society and the national State or also like an epiphenomen of practices and belief which were repressed by racionality. Regarding this mode of understanding the relation between modernity and genocide, this article attempts to further address other controversials issues such as: the role of state, the nature of violence, the relationship between murderer-victim, the responsibility of murderers, and the link between genocide and society.
