The political subjectivity of war. Maria Eugenia Vasquez' testimony

The following text provides a reflection of the military-political militancy of a guerrilla fighter, Maria Eugenia Vasquez, during the 1970s and 1980s, based on her published memoirs as an autobiographical narrative, in the book "Escrito para no morir: bitacora de una militancia" (1998), and other texts. This paper intends to track the political subjectivity configurations of a woman who recalls the motivations on her illegal armed participation, the difficulty of her militancy and the reasons for demobilization.
