Writing history and memory politics
Keywords:
History, Memory, Memory policiesSynopsis
This book presents a series of reflections on the extreme violence of the occupation of the territory in its various moments, from the Colony to the Brazil of the economic miracle. From the province of Grão-Pará to the “emptiness” of the Amazon and Mato Grosso, even before its administrative division. The articles are the result of the VII International Seminar on History and Historiography, an event that consolidates a network of programs and researchers, whose articulation, initiated in 2005, highlights discussions and stories that for a long time were relegated to the background, but which are fundamental for us to understand our formation as a people, as a nation.
