Debates about how to remember politically contested or painful
pasts exist throughout the world. As with the case of the Holocaust
in Europe and Apartheid in South Africa, South American countries
are struggling with the legacy of state terrorism left by the 1970s
dictatorships. Coming to terms with the past entails understanding
the role different social actors played in those events as well as
what those event mean for us today. Young people in these
situations have to learn about painful historical events over which
there is no national consensus. This book explores discursive
processes of intergenerational transmission of recent history
through the case of the Uruguayan dictatorship. The main themes of
the book are the discursive construction of social memory and
intergenerational transmission of contested pasts through
recontextualization, resemiotization and intertextuality.
