Abstract

This chapter focuses on moments when the struggles over discourse are visible. In these moments, the complexities of group membership and the limits of discourse, as well as the process of narrative construction, emerge. In El Salvador, this rupture occurred when the FMLN’s Mauricio Funes was elected president in 2009, and even more so when he asked for perdón for the El Mozote massacre on the 20th anniversary of the Peace in 2012. In Guatemala, the 2013 genocide trial against Efraín Ríos Montt and Mauricio Rodríguez Sánchez represents a moment of rupture. These moments provide an opportunity to observe the struggle between truth and forgetting and about what is true.
