It explains that the decree urged provinces to collect stories of people “who cursed the bandits and died by the sharp edge of the sword” (ma kou bi yu feng ren zhe). By democratizing martyrdom, the 1939 decree sought to transform civilian bodies into weapons, which by no means physically injured Japanese soldiers but managed to offend the invaders' fighting spirit. The chapter then discusses the democratization of martyrdom in the Republican era, and it then reveals two major developments in twentieth-century China: the militarization of civilian life and the civilianization of war. The chapter examines how the Nationalist government's war-dead compensation and commendation regulations advanced the process of militarization. It further explicates the civilianization of war, which is defined as the increasing presence of civilians not only as victims but also as supporters of and participants in conflicts between states.","PeriodicalId":288753,"journal":{"name":"Governing the Dead","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129989251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She had been active in the Juventud Peronista since 1966, a Peronist youth organisation whose incessant street demonstrations during the early 1970s had been instrumental in the return of the exiled former president Juan Domingo Per ó n to Argentina. Th e Peronist Montoneros, the Marxist People’s Revolutionary Army or ERP ( Ej é rcito Revolucionario del Pueblo ) and a host of other guerrilla organisations had equally contributed to Per ó n’s political rebirth through armed operations against the reigning military dictatorship of Lieutenant-General Lanusse. Free elections were held in March 1973, and Per ó n became president of Argentina in July 1973. Soon, a violent factionalism developed between left -wing and rightwing Peronists about the administrative control of national, provincial and local governments, while the ERP continued to attack the armed forces and dreamt of a Cuban Revolution on Argentine soil. Th e left -wing Montoneros resumed their political violence by late 1973, in part as a response to right-wing death squads. Per ó n died in July 1974. His widow Mar í a Estela Mart í nez de Per ó n assumed his place in a worsening political and economic climate. Th e ERP and Montoneros were persecuted relentlessly, especially aft er the military coup of March 1976 (Robben 2005 : 134–42). Graciela Daleo had joined the Montoneros in 1975.
