Abstract
O artigo apresenta uma análise dos 'usos políticos do passado' feitos pelos militantes do movimento estudantil na década de 1970 no intuito de reforçar a identidade associativa e legitimar a resistência contra a ditadura militar. A instrumentalização do passado se fez a partir da ênfase no martírio de estudantes vítimas da repressão: a morte de Alexandre Vannucchi Leme (aluno da Geologia da USP e militante da ALN) pelos agentes do Exército em 1973, e o 'desaparecimento' de Honestino Guimarães (último presidente da UNE na clandestinidade). Nesse culto às vítimas da ditadura, também se relembra a morte do estudante secundarista Edson Luís, baleado por policiais durante uma manifestação de rua, em 1968.

This paper presents an analysis of ‘political uses of the past’ made by activists from the student movement in the 1970s in order to strengthen associative identity and legitimate resistance to the military dictatorship
The instrumentalization of the past was made through an emphasis on the martyrdom of student victims of repression: the death of Alexandre Vannucchi Leme by army agents in 1973 and the ‘disappearance’ of Honestino Guimarães
Summary
Among the striking moments of the student movement’s (SM) resistance to the military regime during the 1970s certain actions can be highlighted which served as different ‘orders of time’ for the carrying out of proposals of symbolic resistance. A part of my doctoral dissertation on the resistance of the SM to the military regime during the 1970s, I highlight how the death of students was politically instrumentalized by representatives of the SM.
