Contemporary justice-making processes often focus on reconciliation or legal retribution, but not on the complexity of victimhood beyond individual subjectivity or refusals of state propositions for social repair. In Colombia, where drug cartels and state-sponsored violence had terrorized the population for over fifty years, it was not forgiveness and acceptance that punctuated the turn of the twenty-first century, but the refusal to reconcile with the state's duplicity regarding the disappearance and death of thousands. This essay illustrates how irreconciliation as an affective sentiment is taking shape in Colombia through forms of reattribution that take the form of victim visibilizations. In analysing the strategic use of victim visibilizations as a refusal of state accountability, their expansion of the notion of victimhood, and their politics of irreconciliation, I show how even with the state's remorse-driven discourses, the public's understanding that political, judicial, and social accountability was not possible and pushed them to chart new strategies for disclosure and healing.

使缺席可见:受害与暴力的不可调和

当代的司法制定过程通常关注和解或法律报复,而不是超越个人主观性或拒绝国家主张进行社会修复的受害者的复杂性。在哥伦比亚,贩毒集团和国家支持的暴力威胁民众长达 50 多年,在 21 世纪之交打断的不是宽恕和接受,而是拒绝与国家在失踪和数千人的死亡。这篇文章说明了作为一种情感情绪的不和解是如何通过采取受害者形象化形式的再归因形式在哥伦比亚形成的。在分析将受害者可视化作为拒绝国家责任的战略用途,他们对受害者概念的扩展,以及他们不和解的政治,我展示了即使有国家的悔恨驱动的话语,公众如何理解政治、司法和社会责任是不可能的,并促使他们制定新的披露策略和愈合。
