[Commlist] New Book - Looking for Alicia: The Unfinished Life of an Argentinian Rebel

Sun May 01 10:25:21 GMT 2022






Alicia Raboy was one of 228 Argentinian journalists murdered or “disappeared” during the military dictatorship of 1976-1983. She was also a contemporary as well as a distant cousin of the author, long-time IAMCR member and media scholar Marc Raboy.

In this unique book Raboy pieces together Alicia’s story, exploring the parallels and diverging circumstances of his and Alicia’s lives – the one brutally cut short, the other ongoing. The author and his subject share more than a surname and a distant ancestral connection, as children of Jewish immigrants from Ukraine; both were marked by youthful rebellion, journalistic ambition, and the radical politics that were a hallmark of the ’60s and ’70s.
