| Descripción: | In 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. |
