México como destino final. Desplazamiento territorial y abandono de la militancia revolucionaria en Guatemala.

Abstract

espanolEn Guatemala, la decada de los anos ochenta se caracterizo por el incremento de la violencia instituida a partir de la implementacion de la estrategia contrainsurgente de los regimenes militares. Ante ello, miles de guatemaltecos buscaron proteccion en otras naciones, la vecindad con Mexico facilito su desplazamiento en el territorio, algunos con la intencion de asilarse otros de refugiarse. Sin embargo, hubo quienes penetraron de manera clandestina pues su militancia en organizaciones revolucionarias los obligo a ello, por lo que su movilidad estuvo definida por la disolucion de una identidad constitutiva dentro de un marco institucional. El trabajo que presento aborda la experiencia de algunos militantes del Partido Guatemalteco del Trabajo-Partido Comunista (PGT-PC), quienes fueron forzados a abandonar su pais natal a consecuencia de la represion y persecucion sistematica dirigida a su organizacion. A partir de las entrevistas que les realice expondre las vicisitudes de su llegada a Mexico, las relaciones que establecieron en el pais y el abandono de su proyecto politico. EnglishIn Guatemala, the decade of the eighties was characterized by an increase in violence instituted after the implementation of the counterinsurgency strategy of military regimes. Before this, thousands of Guatemalans sought protection in other nations, the neighborhood with Mexico facilitated their movement in the territory, some with the intention of asyluming others to take refuge. However, there were those who entered clandestinely because their militancy in revolutionary organizations forced them to do so, so their mobility was defined by the dissolution of a constitutive identity within an institutional framework. The work that I present approaches the experience of some militants of the Guatemalan Labor Party-Communist Party (PGT-PC), who were forced to leave their native country as a consequence of the repression and systematic persecution directed to their organization. From the interviews that I did, I will expose the vicissitudes of his arrival in Mexico, the relations that he established in the country and the abandonment of his political project.
