Resumen
Hundreds of humans remains of the armed conflict in El Salvador have yet to be recovered. These remains belong to victims of assassination as well as to individuals killed in combat, on both sides of the conflict. They form part of the invisible map of our dead. In the following pages I will focus upon one case in particular, that of the recovery of the remains of my sister. She was a radio operator from the Armed Liberation Forces, killed in combat. The process of recovery of her remains was complex, something that has allowed me to shed light upon perceptions and imaginaries of the revolution, the war and the post-war periods.

Resumen
The Cold War was a global ideological war that was settled with the use of political violence in Third World countries. The one that specifically characterized Latin America was the forced disappearance of people. Its massive, systematic and widespread use was such that it forced the international community to create instruments for its prevention and punishment. To demonstrate this, we compare the forced disappearance of persons in the most illustrative and contrasting national cases, such as Argentina, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. The aim is to demonstrate their relative relevance to stimulate future research that seeks a transnational explanation centered on the Third World.

Resumen
This paper argues that the fierce dispute over Memory, Truth and Justice that has been observed in recent years in Guatemala is nothing more than the continuation of the conflict that began in 1954. the advocates of oblivion, historical revisionism and impunity are the same ones who have defended the oligarchic order restored in 1954. Those who seek to preserve the memory of the atrocities, the historical clarification of human rights violations and the punishment of those responsible for the latter are followers of the who questioned the oligarchic restoration of 1954. This article also argues that the Guatemalan State has not had the will to absorb the demands made by the relatives of victims, survivors and human rights organizations. Either, the Guatemalan State has not had the will to turn the resolution of said demands into a source of legitimacy. For that reason, the victories of transitional justice do not legitimize the State but rather confirm the veracity of the violence that it carried out and question the legality and legitimacy of the order that it defended.

Resumen
This paper reviews the production of contemporary Central American documentary films made by women, focusing on the concepts of spatiality, postmemory and opacity. From an analytical viewing of the works and in depth interviews (to the directors and experts), it brings forward a commentary of the documentaries Los Ofendidos and El Silencio del Topo by Marcela Zamora and Anaïs Taracena, respectively. It examines the importance of testimony, the return to spaces as an act of memory, the film and journalistic archive, and revisiting the events. Some of the findings of this analysis are the evidence that both documentaries offer a plurality of voices that allows us to reclaim an alternative story of a past that has been difficult to access.

Resumen
In Costa Rica, poverty and inequality indicators are traditionally reported on an annual basis, limiting their utility for timely analysis and responsive policymaking. This study develops and applies a novel methodology to generate monthly estimates of household poverty rates and Gini coefficients from June 2020 to November 2023. Results indicate statistically insignificant differences between the proposed estimates and official data for most periods analyzed. The research makes three substantive contributions. First, it reveals considerable monthly variability in poverty and inequality, underscoring the limitations of annual reporting in capturing short-term fluctuations. Second, the proposed methodology significantly reduces information lag, which improves the ability to make decisions. Third, findings demonstrate the pivotal role of labor market dynamism in driving changes in poverty.

Resumen
In this paper, we analyze the perception of the Central American population regarding the most frequent type of violence and the associated psychosocial variables. We used the Latinobarómetro (2023) database, which includes participants from Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Panama. The sample consisted of 3964 individuals. Descriptive analyses and a binomial logistic regression were conducted. It was found that street violence is perceived as the most frequent type of violence and that people who are more concerned about crime, those who consider themselves to be of a lower social class, and those who are less tolerant of inequality are more likely to identify this type of violence.

Resumen
This paper compiles and analyzes the academic work of Professor MSc. Anabelle Ulate Quirós from the University of Costa Rica, highlighting her pioneering role in Costa Rican academia. Ulate was the first woman to become a full professor at the School of Economics and the only woman to have held the positions of Director of the Instituto de Investigaciones en Ciencias Económicas (1997–2000) and Observatorio del Desarrollo (2005–2013) until 2025. As of 2023, she remained the only full-time female professor at the School of Economics. Her work, influenced by the economic crisis of the 1980s, focuses on scientific and technological innovation as a driver of economic growth in Costa Rica, proposing an unorthodox approach that emphasizes the role of public institutions in development. Her excellence, ethics, and academic rigor challenged gender barriers in a predominantly male environment, serving as an inspiration for future generations.

Resumen
Mexico is traveled by thousands of migrants, mostly Central Americans in search of the “American dream”, many of them board freight trains, risking their lives. Added to this risk is the violence inflicted on them by the authorities, police, criminals, organized crime and inhabitants of different communities. Two causes of said violence are analyzed. The first is that migrants have become economic loot, that is, the commodification of humans. This occurs as a result of the second cause, the construction of an otherness, in two senses, on the one hand, a growing xenophobia induced and on the other the disqualification as humans, an act that leads to abuses against them.

Resumen
This text analyzes the emergence, composition and government logic of the post-neoliberal right-wing forces that governed Guatemala between 2016 and 2024 through the FCN-N and VAMOS parties. From a socio-historical perspective, it suggests that the post-neoliberal rights abandoned the 'logic of politics' and generalized –through state control– a “logic of war” that implies the extension of the practice of criminalization used against socio-environmental protest to other areas of social conflict. In the tour, the novelty of these political forces is identified by analyzing the problematic link that the Guatemalan right maintained with democracy in recent history.
