How the Military RemembersHuman Rights and Countermemories in Latin America\nAuthor(s): Cynthia E. Milton, Michael Lazzara\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: University of Wisconsin Press, United States\nImprint: University of Wisconsin Press\nISBN-13: 9780299352707, 978-0299352707\nSynopsis\nThis groundbreaking collection of essays by experts in political science, sociology, history, and literature analyzes the nuanced and often contentious interplay between memory, truth, and accountability in contemporary Latin America. While previous studies have examined democratization efforts (and right-wing backlashes), transitional justice, and victim-oriented narratives since the end of the Cold War, this volume takes a new approach. It convincingly demonstrates the importance of deconstructing the militaries own active memory workor rather countermemory work, a term the contributors employ to refer to military memories that are both counterintuitive and run counter to the victim-oriented memori.
