In all societies-but especially those that have endured political
violence-the past is a shifting and contested terrain, never fixed
and always intertwined with present-day cultural and political
circumstances. Organized around the Argentine experience since the
1970s within the broader context of the Southern Cone and
international developments, The Struggle for the Past undertakes an
innovative exploration of memory's dynamic social character. In
addition to its analysis of how human rights movements have
inflected public memory and democratization, it gives an
illuminating account of the emergence and development of Memory
Studies as a field of inquiry, lucidly recounting the author's own
intellectual and personal journey during these decades.
