Places of memory and the law of democratic memory: preservation, pacification and institutionality
Abstract
Places of memory have been an increasingly important object of study in memory studies since Pierre Nora’s first approaches to the concept. The critics of the way in which the French author construe it allowed for the expansion of a field of studies that has had in the ‘geography of memory’ a fertile field of analysis that has provided valuable approaches to understanding the phenomenon. In this article we analyzed the dynamics and pathways that memorial legislation had made in Spain with the memory and places hegemonic paradigms references, particularly the Law of Democratic Memory in 2022.
