Abstract

This work begins with a specific question: How important are the photographs taken of the events of December 19th and 20th, 2001 in Argentina to be part of an archive? Accessing the archive allows us to understand how images construct the social. In addition, it allows us to establish a counterpoint between the photographs of two photojournalists who, located in different places, were able to present a different representation of the events of those days in December 2001.
