Abstract

Review of the work divided into two volumes The world is a handkerchief. Travel abroad of the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, published by the Editorial of the National University of La Plata in November 2018 and coordinated by Luis Zarranz. The first volume covers the trips undertaken between 1978 and 1990, while the second took between 1991 and 1997. Read as a whole and given the archival material used, the work is very valuable in at least two aspects. On the one hand, it allows the organization of different organizations abroad to be constituted into Support Groups for the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo, which brings us closer to the impact of the Association outside Argentina's borders. On the other hand, -although it is not proposed-, it allows to deepen the relationship, so little studied, between the Association and its subsidiaries, obtaining a small approximation to the impact of the Association within the country.
