KURI PINEDA, Edith. The Social Construction of Memory in the Space: a Sociological Approach. Península [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.1, pp.9-30. ISSN 1870-5766.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pnsla.2017.01.001.

The field of collective memory is one of the most discussed subjects within the broad field of the social sciences in the last few decades. The aim of this paper is to introduce a theoretical discussion on the social construction of memory and its connection with the concept of space. In this work, I develop the way the memory is constructed in everyday life based upon intersubjective relationships, social practices, power, culture and historicity. In the same sense, I present the mode in which space and memory are linked conceptually and how such a connection has a sensory, symbolic and political dimension. I will also analyze how a diversity of social and political actors carry out a political and symbolic struggle in the public space in order to engrave in it memory, creating thus a vision of the past.

Palavras-chave : memory; public space; power; intersubjectivity; social practices.
