| Sumario: | The article addresses the extents and categories of memory devices such as the recently created Audiovisual Archives of Trials for Crimes Against Humanity, in the city of Santa Fe, Argentina. This device transforms the access and circulation conditions of these records into a new space in which the usual equations between time and memory are altered.
In this sense, we will discuss the implications of the willingness of constructing archives that contribute to make these trials part of the process of elaboration of a social memory. How can the images of these trials be read, then?
How much can they correlate now with the political, cultural and communicative present? How is their meaning constructed? What is the role of the institutions that preserve them? How do we train our perception in order to read them from our present? |
