RAMOS BASSO, Javiera  and  PIPER SHAFIR, Isabel. Plotting resistances: memories of local conflicts in Valle del Huasco, Chile. Andamios [online]. 2018, vol.15, n.37, pp.93-118. ISSN 2594-1917.

This paper aims to understand the memories that are constructed by people who participate in territorial organizations in Valle del Huasco (Atacama Region, Chile) about their resistance processes in the present. Using qualitative methodologies, this article analyses fourteen interviews made to women and men that live in different cities of Valle del Huasco and that participate in processes involving territorial conflicts. The results of the analysis show how the political memory operates as a warp that articulates the experiences in sense narratives of usurpation and territorial resistance rhetoric.

Keywords : Collective memory; politic memory; territory; resistance; collective identity.
