This book examines memories of political violence in Chile after
the 1973 coup and a 17-years-long dictatorship. Based on individual
and group interviews, it focuses on the second generation children,
adults today, born to parents who were opponents of Pinochets
regime. Focusing on their lived experience, the intersection
between private and public realms during Pinochet's politics of
fear regime, and the afterlife of violence in the
post-dictatorship, the book is concerned with new dilemmas and
perspectives that stem from the intergenerational transmission of
political memories. It reflects critically on the role of family
memories in the broader field of memory in Chile, demonstrating the
dynamics of how later generations appropriate and inhabit their
family political legacies. The book suggests how the second
generation cultural memory redefines the concept of victimhood and
propels society into a broader process of recognition.
