| Izvleček: | Based on interviews with relatives of disappeared Brazilian politicians, the analysis of their literary productions and the documents and processes researched in the Commission of Amnesty and the National Archives of Brasília, the thesis investigates the impact of these deaths on the lives of their relatives, and the (im)possibilities of mourning, related to the absence of judgments and convictions, due to the Amnesty Law, instituted in 1979, and the absence of laws and policies of memory on the military dictatorship in Brazil. The thesis also reflected on mourning in its collective and political aspect by relating it to the Arendt categories of indifference and banality of evil reflecting on civil-military tolerance of crimes committed in the past.
