Modern wars are not performed now defending the sovereign, but in the name of the group existence, as Foucault sustained. That´s why wars cause many nationalism excesses and debates through which traditions are updated and reviewed and the Nation´s values and its member´s life values are weigh up. In this paper some of these debates are analyzed through the particular case of Malvinas War (1982), same as the way they have affected the soldiers which lives were involved, from the reading of testimonial tales.
