Where Memory Dwells: Culture and State Violence in Chile
Macarena Gomez-Barris
The 1973 military coup in Chile deposed the democratically elected Salvador Allende and installed a dictatorship that terrorized the country for almost twenty years. This title examines cultural sites and representations in postdictatorship Chile - what the author calls "memory symbolics" - to uncover the impact of state-sponsored violence.
