Resumen

En el marco de la Comisión para el Acceso a la Verdad, el Esclarecimiento Histórico y el Impulso a la Justicia de las Violaciones Graves a los Derechos Humanos Cometidas de 1965 a 1990, creada en 2021 en México por decreto presidencial, entre los años 2022 y 2024 se organizaron foros regionales donde se presentaron diversos testimonios sobre la violencia política infringida durante dicho período histórico. Desde un enfoque que comprende a los mismos como prácticas narrativas de memoria y resistencia que son significadas desde el presente, este artículo aborda los testimonios narrados durante el Diálogo por la Verdad en el Estado de Chiapas. El análisis muestra formas de visibilización de la agencia política indígena en contexto contrainsurgente.

Abstract

Abstract

Within the framework of the Commission for Access to Truth, Historical Clarification, and the Promotion of Justice for Serious Human Rights Violations Committed from 1965 to 1990, established by presidential decree in Mexico in 2021, regional forums were held between 2022 and 2024 to present diverse testimonies on political violence from this historical period. Adopting an analytical perspective that considers these testimonies as narrative practices of memory and resistance, shaped and reinterpreted from the present, this article examines the testimonies presented during the Dialogue for Truth in Chiapas. The analysis reveals how indigenous political agency, rooted in a counterinsurgency context, becomes visible within this setting.
