Abstract

When the process of democratization in the Southern Cone began, Argentine and Uruguayan political exiles began returning to their countries of origin. As part of that process, between 1983 and 1986, in Argentina and in Uruguay emerged various social organizations that were concerned with helping the exiles in their reintegration into the country. This article explores the responses of these organizations in two different analytical keys. Firstly, it acknowledges the exchange of knowledge, concerns, and ways of working between Argentine social organisations and Uruguay in the process of formulation of certain measures and programmes for the reintegration of returnees. In this way, this work seeks to break with the comparisons in the strict sense to explore health care networks between different actors from both countries. Secondly, we reflect on a tension that emerges from the network: despite the mutual influences, assistance programmes had important differences between both cases. As a result, this article offers some interpretations about these differences, emphasizing problems that are closely linked with modes that are developed "in each country democratic transitions" and, especially, where the subject of the return had in each post-dictatorship agenda
