Sites of Memory in Spain and Latin America

Trauma, Politics, and Resistance

Marina Llorente

A collection of essays exploring historical memory at the intersection of political, cultural, social, and economic forces in Spain and Latin America. The authors focus on various forms of memory and their resistance against forgetting and hegemonic power, with an interdisciplinary methodology that illuminates otherwise illegible processes. The volume covers geographies transformed by violence and conflict, from contemporary to pre-Columbian times. Witnessing, trauma, and testimony speak to the urgency of truth and justice, making historical memory a political act.
