Popis: The present work aims to investigate the different manifestations about the recent past of state terrorism carried out by the judges during the audiences of so-called "truth trials" held in the city of Bahia Blanca, Argentina, between 1999 and 2000. To carry out this study we worked with a methodology of qualitative analysis and different sources of information, such as interviews with judges, lawyers of human rights organizations, and all the videos of the audiences of the Truth trial of Bahia Blanca. As a result, it´s noted the way in which judges interpreted state terrorism, confronting the position taken by the military of failing to provide information and to claim the "anti-subversive war", establishing different responsibilities among members of the Armed Forces
