Abstract

The article "The daring to narrate the intimate" in the chronicle Where I do not stand (2021), by Belén López Peiró, highlights the denunciation of sexual abuse that the author suffered at the hands of her uncle, a police commissioner in Argentina. López Peiró narrates her experience in the judicial system when reporting and taking her case to trial, emphasizing the destructive force of a Justice system that revictimizes her. Through the chronicle, the author shares both judicial documents and her own emotions and sensations, creating an affective counter-archive about her legal case. López Peiró questions the treatment of sexual violence complainants by the Argentine judicial system and shares her feelings of shame, anger, anguish, and pain, revealing the devastating impact of the malfunctioning of Justice.
