Abstract

Este artículo presenta resultados de una investigación sobre dispositivos de factualización de la muerte y desaparición de personas, implementados por actores nogubernamentales y gubernamentales, en Arizona (Estados Unidos). Estos dispositivos son prácticas sociales para traducir la experiencia ("mundo") en hechos ("realidad"); dentro de las cuales la cuantificación juega un rol importante. Se analizan dos pares de técnicas de factualización: contar/mapear y enlistar/contar. Se concluye con una triple distinción para nuestro caso de estudio: contar como cuantificación; contar como narrar; y contar como importar.

Alternate abstract:

This article presents research results on the factualization systems around people's death and disappearance, implemented by nongovernmental and governmental actors, in Arizona (United States). These systems are social practices, which translate the experience (or "world") into facts (or "reality"); in those systems, quantification plays an important role. We analyze two couple of factualization techniques: counting/mapping and listing/counting. We conclude with a threefold distinction in our case study: counting as quantification; counting as telling; and counting as mattering.
