The transmission of memories about political violence is a pressing need in societies which have experienced authoritarian rule. The article focuses on this issue in the context of the Chilean military dictatorship (1973-1990) and the memory currently being constructed about it, forty years after the coup. From a dialogic perspective, the text analyzes the type of relationship established between generations when they think back about the military dictatorship. Six discussion groups were set up, with a total of 48 participants selected according to their a) age group, b) political stance, c) socioeconomic level, and d) territory. The discursive analysis reveals the establishment of three generations –protagonist of the past, protagonist of the present, and a gray area– whose members, when recalling the dictatorship, use debate as their dialogic form without truly questioning the contents employed to construct versions of this past in their conversations. |
