SILVA HERNANDEZ., Francisca. Analysis of the scope and implications of the heritage of the archives in Mexico, for social research. Revista San Gregorio [online]. 2020, n.39, pp.74-86. ISSN 2528-7907.  https://doi.org/10.36097/rsan.v1i39.1377.

Society involves historical evolutionary processes and events that guide transformative processes, being framed in archives in an oral, written, printed or artistic way, which is objectively studied, interpreted, analyzed and contrasted through research. In Mexico, these historical sources allow people to visualize, recognize and dignify their guarantees and rights as citizens. The General Archives Law, published in 2018, emphasizes that archives constitute an irreplaceable heritage of collective memory and identity, and must be integrated in a practical and accessible way, meeting the needs of researchers, academics, students and the general public, as well as having access to basic and minimum means of infrastructure, personnel and maintenance in the systematization of information based on the principles of conservation, provenance, integrity, availability and accessibility. This document aims to expose the scope and implications of archival heritage in social research, based on a guarantee as a human right and the State's obligation to safeguard archives as heritage. A qualitative approach with descriptive, documentary and exegetical scope was used, assisted by the analysis-synthesis; that evidences the need to strengthen mechanisms for the dissemination and disclosure of files in the work of social research.
