Abstract

In the second half of the twentieth century, Peronist militants started paying close attention to the Arab world. Framed by nationalism in various ways, their approaches were part of a political agenda revolving around anti-imperialism, national liberation, and revolution. The links between Latin America and the Arab world were not only translated into the circulation of representations and practices, but they also involved militant networks. In Argentina, the journey of those militants coupled with the haphazardness of politics nurtured a documentary practice based on real-life stories and testimonies. The cleavages between nation and imperialism, and the homeland and the colony, constitute a leading theme throughout these documentaries. The films put into play a conceptual elaboration and a political praxis revolving around the people and liberation, a topic which lies at the core of Suleimanâs rethinking of decolonization. Drawing on this filmography, and especially on recent works by the Argentine documentary filmmaker NÃ©stor Suleiman, this chapter questions both the nature of South-South revolutionary circulations and the evolving conceptualization of the relationships between the center and periphery from the point of view of colonial studies. Approaches in postcolonial studies have frequently led to an exaltation of so-called minorities. They denounced the oppression in which the minoritiesâ subalternity placed them and identified certain forms of alterity which sometimes carry a different political content than what has traditionally characterized the experience of Peronism. We consider this tension through categories historically constitutive of the colonial question, such as: the alienation of the colonized, the redemptive character of violence, the perspective of the revolution that creates a new man, and the associated category of the Third World.
