    De memorias centrales y periféricas. La espacialización de la memoria en la Argentina
    (Dykinson, 2019) Meloni González, Carolina; González de Oleaga, Marisa N.
    La memoria histórica se ha convertido en capítulo obligado de las agendas de muchos de los gobiernos occidentales. Recordar o rememorar los pasados trágicos –genocidios, matanzas, desapariciones, torturas– a través de relatos o narrativas parece ser la consigna. Rememorar para no repetir la historia, en una suerte de nueva pedagogía patriótica y democrática. Y dentro de esa incorporación, los lugares de memoria parecen haberse constituido como parte fundamental del mandato memorístico. Como si hubiera una necesidad específica de recordar en un lugar o de transformar esos espacios para revertir el curso de la historia y rememorar lo que allí aconteció. Si en Europa, países como Alemania o Francia van a la cabeza de la espacialización de la memoria –desde los campos de concentración nazis a los campos de batalla de la Segunda Gran Guerra–, en América Latina ese lugar le corresponde a la Argentina, como país adalid de la memorialización ligada a la última dictadura militar.

    Memory Sites and Reenacting State Terrorism: The Museum at Argentina’s Naval Mechanics School
    (Berghahn, 2022) González de Oleaga, Marisa N.
    The politics of memory have become a sine qua non of the agendas of Western governments. Transitional justice, symbolic reparations, and memory transmission are some of the concepts that accompany these new trends in remembrance. In this process, the sites of traumatic events affecting the community—events necessary to remember—have gained particular prominence. Often referred to as places or sites of memory, they represent a novel combination of memory and space not seen in the past. Public policies have traditionally commemorated and emphasized sites associated with victory, not defeat. It was not until post–World War II that the places where atrocities took place began to emerge from the past as a way to take stock of the present. What can be done with an extermination camp after the fact? How can a battlefield be incorporated into a community’s historic landscape? This transformation can be achieved by resignifying these sites—for example, by turning them into spaces of memory, museums, study centers, cultural institutions, or social organizations where history can be reenacted, to list just a few examples. There appears to be a need, generally voiced by survivors and by the organizations that represent them, to not simply let bygones be bygones, to not allow these sites to be destroyed, and to preserve them as powerful documents but at the same time invalidate them as monuments. Those who promote this type of remembrance seem to suggest that, although we cannot change what happened at such sites, we can incorporate sites into our experiences and tell their stories to the generations to come in a different way.

    How to do things with utopias? Stories, Memory and Resistance in Paraguay
    (Sussex Academic Press, 2018) González de Oleaga, Marisa N.
    The West has an abundant literature on the subject of utopias. These exercises have traditionally concentrated on what was called “utopian thought” and “literary utopias”, a genre of writing with its own conventions and rules. Actual cases of utopias that were set up at some point in contemporary history seem to have generated less interest, possibly because the very definition of utopia — as a “no-place” or an “idealplace” — appears to preclude any project carried to completion, which, for that very reason, would cease to be utopian. How to do things with utopias is a proposal that is developed at length in En primera persona: Testimonios desde la utopía,2 an analysis of the limitations that the literary genre imposed on the representation and circulation of the memory of utopian/dystopian experiments, and which calls for new forms of writing and representation.
