This book explores the history of the conformation and trajectory of the fights of the Asociación Madres y Familiares de Detenidos Desparecidos de Uruguay (The Uruguayan Association for the Mothers and Relatives of Disappeared Detainees) from 1976 to 2005. The different stages in the claims for the truth to be known about the whereabouts of the disappeared detainees, both on national soil and in the region, is systematised through testimonies from the protagonists and key documents that unfold the context of the political disputes of these years and its projection onto the present.
