Abstract

Exiles occupy a marginal status within the field of Transitional Justice. Chileans who fled the Pinochet dictatorship have had limited access to public and official platforms to share their experiences. The MRC´s efforts in gathering, digitizing and disseminating materials relating to Chilean exile demonstrate how non-state and international archives can provide alternative and meaningful pathways for acknowledgment and symbolic redress.
