The article analyzes the disappearance of children during the civil war in El Salvador and focuses on the work of the Pro Búsqueda Association. The report "From Madness to Hope" compiled cases of violence, but did not include the complaints of relatives whose children disappeared during the conflict. Tania Ocampo Saravia's book examines the particularities of the forced disappearance of children in different departments of El Salvador and highlights the state's response and the motivations behind this practice. The research shows the need to systematically address this crime, as its effects persist today and affect the entire Salvadoran society. The author also raises the need to investigate disappearances in urban areas and the dynamics of "children's villages" and international adoptions. [Extracted from the article]

This paper aims to analyze the repressive strategy as it was described in the military doctrine that guided the actions of the armed forces, security forces and paramilitary organizations in El Salvador between 1962 and 1972. Attention will be given to the way this repressive strategy molded the state repressive treatment of the wave of trade union protest that took place in the same period. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
