This article presents an analysis of the actions of remembering and forgetting in "Chicos que Vuelven" (2011) by Mariana Enriquez. The construction of the archive of missing children and adolescents in Buenos Aires constitutes a key experience in the tense relationship experienced by civil society and subjectivities in the narrative. Drawing from the works of Derrida (2001), among others, we understand that the interweaving of the notions of archive and memory alludes to a recent traumatic past of the nation and disrupts any attempt to restore order in the present time, subjecting this population to a collective paralysis.
