SANTOS, Myrian Sepúlveda dos. The Return of the Nightmare: A Study on the Struggle of Memory versus Forgetting. []. , 121, pp.103-122. ISSN 2182-7435.  https://doi.org/10.4000/rccs.10324.

The article offers an analysis of different types of memory, in the face of issues related to memory politics, the falsification of history, and the notion of collective amnesia in the current context of economic crisis, worker fragmentation and predominance of social networks in communicative processes. It seeks to demonstrate that there are a number of ways in which a society can fight against forgetting, such as through testimonial literature, post-memory cases, and archives. In any of these cases, a critical approach is needed so that commitment to the past, also understood as a duty of memory, is fulfilled in favor of an ethical stance able to deal with reparation policies and responsibilities.
