Paper long abstract:
This paper aims to introduce the panel and discuss the main theoretical and methodological issues that emerge from the analysis of the memories of traumatic times and events, specifically the rememoration processes.
From our joint-experiences in working about the past - through memories of dictatorship and revolutionary contexts in Portugal and Chili - we'll discuss the inner tensions in approaching historical events from social memory framed discourses, characterized by being dominated or counter-hegemonic.
