Cómo se recuerda en museos, escuelas y juicios Saint Bonnet, María Virginia Memory Argentina Museums Schools Judgments Memoria Argentina Museos Escuelas Juicios This paper explores the category of memory and problematizes its incidence in three different spheres (museums, educational institutions, and legal testimonies offered in the court by victims of State terrorism during the last civic-military dictatorship in Argentina) that have in common the activation of remembrance as an imperative for social coexistence. Memory does not only imply a temporary category that recovers some historical landmarks from the past and discards other minor events, but also incorporates certain frames of reference —cultural, social, anthropological— that make it possible to frame individual memories in collective experiences. Making memory becomes a decisive project for the future, in which it will be necessary to establish —with criterion, forcefulness and lucidity— what to repeat and what to discard of the lived events so that the reality is not obtained in cyclical movements and recurrent sufferings. It is in this sense that memory can be thought of as a utopia, but also as a fundamental guiding principle of justice to avoid violence and inequality. Making memory stands as a political practice in different areas of public and community life. Este trabajo explora la categoría de memoria y problematiza su incidencia en tres ámbitos diversos (los museos, las instituciones educativas, y los testimonios jurídicos ofrecidos en juicios por víctimas del terrorismo de Estado durante la última dictadura cívico-militar en Argentina) que tienen en común la activación de la recordación como un imperativo para la convivencia social. La memoria no implica solamente una categoría temporal que recupera del pasado algunos hitos y descarta otros aconteceres menores, sino que incorpora determinados marcos de referencia —culturales, sociales, antropológicos— que posibilitan encuadrar los recuerdos individuales en vivencias colectivas. Hacer memoria deviene en un decisivo proyecto de futuro en el que se necesitará establecer —con criterio, contundencia y lucidez— qué repetir y qué desechar de los hechos vividos para que la realidad no se obture en movimientos cíclicos y padecimientos recurrentes. Es en este sentido que la memoria puede pensarse como una utopía, aunque también como un fundamental principio rector de justicia para evitar la violencia y la desigualdad. Hacer memoria se erige como una práctica política en diferentes ámbitos de la vida pública y comunitaria.
