Abstract Published in 1973 and set in the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship (1964-1985), the novel The girl in the photograph, by Lygia Fagundes Telles, accompanies three young women living in a boarding house who build, in alternate voices, a complex narrative capable of covering both everyday life and the socio-political reality of the period. Through an analysis of law in the literature, the present research focused on the positions of the protagonists of the novel to investigate the many ways that Law can take on in its relationship with people, especially women - or, better, how its presence (or absence) can result in oppression and violence. It was concluded, in the end, not only the revolutionary potential of testimony literature for the revival of collective memory and the denunciation of social injustices but also - and mainly - the permanence of the criticisms extracted from the novel to the sexist, indifferent, and conniving structures of the Brazilian law. 197 civilmilitary civil military 19641985, 19641985 1964 1985 , (1964-1985) photograph Telles build voices sociopolitical socio political period people or better absence violence concluded end sexist indifferent 19 1964198 196 198 (1964-1985 1 196419 (1964-198 19641 (1964-19 (1964-1 (1964- (1964 (196 (19 (1 (

Resumo Publicado em 1973 e ambientado na ditadura civil-militar brasileira (1964-1985), o romance As meninas, de Lygia Fagundes Telles, acompanha três jovens mulheres moradoras de um pensionato que constroem, a vozes alternadas, uma narrativa complexa capaz de abranger tanto o jogo do cotidiano quanto a realidade sociopolítica do período. Por meio de uma análise do direito na literatura, a presente pesquisa se debruçou sobre as posições das protagonistas do romance para investigar as muitas formas de que pode se revestir o Direito em sua relação com as pessoas, especialmente as mulheres - ou, de maneira mais específica, como sua presença (ou ausência) pode resultar em opressão e violência. Concluiu-se, ao fim, não só pelo potencial revolucionário da literatura de testemunho para o avivamento da memória coletiva e a denúncia das injustiças sociais, mas também - e principalmente - pela permanência das críticas extraídas do romance às estruturas sexistas, indiferentes e coniventes do Direito brasileiro. 197 civilmilitar civil militar 19641985, 19641985 1964 1985 , (1964-1985) meninas Telles constroem alternadas período pessoas ou específica ausência violência Concluiuse, Concluiuse Concluiu se, Concluiu-se fim sociais sexistas brasileiro 19 1964198 196 198 (1964-1985 1 196419 (1964-198 19641 (1964-19 (1964-1 (1964- (1964 (196 (19 (1 (

Abstract: Debates about the memory of traumatic historical experiences are part of contemporary public opinion and historiography. In the cases of Japan and Spain in the 21st century, the difficulties of coming to terms with a traumatic past and developing an inclusive memory of it are related to the different approaches to analyzing such a past. This article proposes a comparative reading of the two countries, based on the tensions and positions found between the present and the past in relation to the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan, and the Valle de los Caídos mausoleum in Spain.

Resumen: Los debates sobre la memoria de experiencias históricas traumáticas forman parte tanto de la opinión pública como de la historiografía actuales. En los casos de Japón y España en el siglo XXI, las dificultades para aproximarse a un pasado traumático y desarrollar una memoria incluyente acerca de él guardan relación con los distintos enfoques sobre cómo mirar ese pasado. En este artículo se propone una lectura comparada sobre ambos países, a partir de la tensión y de las posiciones encontradas entre presente y pasado respecto al santuario Yasukuni en Japón, y el Valle de los Caídos en España.

Abstract. This paper is motivated by the problem of collective responsibility for the actions committed by our ancestors and by the question about the legitimacy of demands for forgiveness. Turning to the conceptual universe of Hannah Arendt, this argues for the exercise of the capacity for judgment as a catalyst for both the demand for forgiveness and collective responsibility. Forgiveness is thus presented not only as a moral category but as fundamentally political one, essential for reconciling with what has happened and for looking to the future with hope.

Resumen. Este artículo está motivado por el problema de la responsabilidad colectiva frente a las acciones cometidas por nuestros antepasados y por la pregunta acerca de la legitimidad de las demandas de perdón. Acudiendo al universo conceptual heredado de Hannah Arendt, en este texto se aboga por el ejercicio de la capacidad de juicio como detonante tanto de la demanda de perdón como de la responsabilidad colectiva. El perdón se presenta así no solo como una categoría moral sino fundamentalmente política, imprescindible para reconciliarse con lo acontecido y mirar al futuro con esperanza.

ABSTRACT This article focuses on the intersection between the field of study of collective memories with the field of social movements and political action that takes place in the context of various current activisms and social conflicts. In order to account for how the relationship between memory, social movements and activism is approached, a review of academic articles, books and book chapters published in recent years is presented, from which the main problems that this intersection of studies has addressed. At the same time, we propose the expression of political memories as a way of advancing in a conceptualization capable of picking up the particular character that memory work acquires in the framework of political actions carried out by social movements and activisms of various kinds. In this sense, we highlight the idea that these memories have the potential to become resources not only for the action of social movements and activism in general, but also as a way of historicizing these movements and registering them in broader time frames that allow the articulation of their struggles between past, present and future.

RESUMEN El presente artículo se enfoca en el cruce entre el campo de estudio de las memorias colectivas con el campo de los movimientos sociales y acción política que se desarrolla en el contexto de diversos activismos y conflictos sociales actuales Con el objetivo de dar cuenta de cómo se aborda la relación entre memoria, movimientos sociales y activismos, se presenta una revisión de artículos académicos, libros y capítulos de libros publicados en los últimos años, a partir de los cuales se distinguen y describen las principales problemáticas que esta intersección de estudios ha abordado. A la vez proponemos la expresión de memorias políticas como una forma de avanzar en una conceptualización capaz de recoger el carácter particular que adquiere el trabajo de memoria en el marco de acciones políticas llevadas adelante por movimientos sociales y activismos de diverso tipo. En este sentido, destacamos la idea de que estas memorias tienen la potencialidad de constituirse en recursos no solamente para la acción de los movimientos sociales y el activismo en general sino también en una forma de historizar estos movimientos e inscribirlos en marcos temporales más amplio que permiten la articulación de sus luchas entre pasado, presente y futuro.

ABSTRACT This article presents partial results of the research project “Community Art Houses: Historical Memory, Identities, and Popular Environmental Education”. The main objective of the research was to create art books to value and preserve the individual and collective identity in Engabao (Guayas) and the “Niño Manuelito” Shelter home (Azogues). The research was conducted with a qualitative approach, focused on action research methods (AR), and through the hermeneutic method (reading-interpretation-creation-recreation), carried out through a pedagogical immersion experience in the mentioned communities, with students from the Pedagogy of Arts and Humanities program at the University of Arts. As a conclusion, this dynamic of educational immersion in the territory considers the art book as an ideal didactic tool for the transfer of knowledge within the community, and as a pertinent and replicable option for artistic praxis in other contexts. This work involved offering artistic, innovative, and creative learning experiences for individuals in depressed contexts.

RESUMEN Este artículo presenta resultados parciales del proyecto de investigación “Casas comunitarias de las artes: memoria histórica, identidades y educación popular ambiental”. El objetivo principal de la investigación fue crear libros-arte para valorar y preservar la identidad individual y colectiva de Engabao (Guayas) y Casa de Acogida “Niño Manuelito” (Azogues). La investigación se realizó con un enfoque cualitativo, centrado en los métodos de la investigación acción (IA) y a través del método hermenéutico (lectura-interpretación-creación-recreación), llevado a cabo por medio de una experiencia pedagógica de inmersión en las comunidades mencionadas, con los estudiantes de la carrera de Pedagogía de las Artes y Humanidades de la Universidad de las Artes. En conclusión, esta dinámica de inmersión educativa en territorio considera al libro-arte como una herramienta didáctica ideal para la transferencia de saberes en comunidad, y como una opción de praxis artística pertinente y replicable en otros contextos. Este trabajo implicó, pues, ofrecer experiencias de aprendizaje artísticas, innovadoras y creativas a personas situadas en contextos deprimidos.

Abstract Creating a new awareness of the environmental crisis has been on the agendas, either directly or indirectly, of many social actors and media products. These include films and videos focusing on environmental issues, given the current important role of audiovisual culture. Against this backdrop, this paper focuses on the Latin American documentaries Hija de la Laguna (Daughter of the Lake; 2015) and A Mãe de Todas as Lutas (The Mother of all Fights; 2021), with the aim of discussing their possible contributions to a broader perception of climate action. Based on a film analysis centred on the protagonists, the aesthetic and stylistic choices of each work, we look into how the narratives of the two documentaries intertwine information and subjective knowledge, the individual and the collective, the local and the global, personal memory and public archives, among other argumentative markers. These categorisations are compared to the decolonial perspective, which is taken up in the text in a broad way, that is in the dialogue with authors who embody the struggles of indigenous and/or marginalised people into decolonial theory. Among the results found, we highlight that the documentaries establish counternarratives that allow us to identify the emergence of female protagonism in the struggles for land and water ownership, the critical stance towards extractivism (and neo-extractivism) and lingering ethnic-racial prejudice. Also worth noting in both films, the documentary language values the subject, without failing to link them with the social context.

Resumo A constituição de uma nova sensibilidade em relação à crise ambiental tem sido pauta, direta ou indiretamente, de diversos atores sociais e produtos midiáticos. Destes, destacam-se os filmes e vídeos que focam a temática ambiental, em função do papel relevante que a cultura audiovisual representa hoje. Com essas premissas, este artigo foca os documentários latino-americanos Hija de la Laguna (2015) e A Mãe de Todas as Lutas (2021), com o propósito de discutir suas possíveis contribuições para uma percepção ampliada das causas climáticas. A partir da análise fílmica centrada nas protagonistas e nas escolhas estéticas e estilísticas de cada obra, este texto investiga como as narrativas dos dois documentários entrelaçam informação e conhecimento subjetivo; indivíduo e coletivo; local e global; memória pessoal e arquivos públicos; entre outros marcadores argumentativos. Essas categorizações são cotejadas ao posicionamento decolonial, assumido no texto de forma ampla, isto é, em diálogo com autores que incorporam as lutas das populações indígenas e/ou marginalizadas à teoria decolonial. Dentre os resultados encontrados, ressaltamos que os documentários estabelecem contranarrativas que permitem identificar a emersão do protagonismo feminino nas lutas pela posse da terra e da água, o posicionamento crítico em relação ao extrativismo (e neoextrativismo) e a permanência dos preconceitos étnico-raciais. Ressalta-se, ainda, nos dois filmes, a constituição de uma linguagem documentária que valoriza o sujeito, sem deixar de articulá-lo ao contexto social.

Abstract This systematic literature review examines the relationship between media ecology, collective memory, and cultural tourism in the digital age. It also highlights the impact of technology on how we think, relate, and communicate, as well as on the construction of identity and the appreciation of culture. The potential adverse effects of cultural tourism, such as the com-modification and trivialization of culture, are explored, and solutions are proposed using digital tools, such as platforms for preserving collective memory and augmented reality for authentic cultural experiences. The study stresses the importance of investigating this relationship and the potential of digital tools in constructing significant collective memories.

Resumen El propósito de este artículo es brindar recomendaciones metodológicas para la reconstrucción de la memoria colectiva en organizaciones sociales, esto permite comprender la historia y la identidad de estas organizaciones, preservando su legado y fortaleciendo su representatividad. La investigación en la que se basa este artículo se llevó a cabo en colaboración con sindicatos campesinos en Costa Rica, utilizando un enfoque mixto. Entre las recomendaciones clave están cultivar confianza y empatía con las personas participantes, mantener registros reflexivos para enriquecer la comprensión del fenómeno social y facilitar la replicación de la metodología. Además, es crucial mantener un equilibrio entre flexibilidad y rigurosidad para garantizar la adaptabilidad a diferentes contextos y permitir la extrapolación de la metodología a grupos similares, facilitando así la generación de información comparable.

Abstract This article provides methodological recommendations for reconstructing collective memory in social organizations. Reconstructing collective memory is crucial for comprehending the history and identity of social organizations, preserving their legacy, and enhancing their representativeness. The study is based on collaborative research with peasant unions in Costa Rica, employing a mixed-method approach of surveys, in-depth interviews, and documentary analysis. The shortage of studies and methodological frameworks in this area underscores the need for clear and practical recommendations. Some recommendations include building trust and empathy with participants keeping reflective records to enhance understanding of the social phenomenon and facilitating the replication of the methodology. Furthermore, it is crucial to maintain a balance between flexibility and rigor to ensure adaptability to different contexts and enable the extrapolation of the methodology to similar groups.

Abstract: This article analyzes three commemorations of the disappearance of people in Mexico between 2010 and 2021: the International Week and Day of the Detained-Disappeared and the March for Dignity: Mothers Searching for Their Sons and Daughters. It explores the construction of different memories of disappearances and their expression in public commemorations, and proposes an analytical approach based on five interlinked elements: agents, narratives, temporal structure, practices, and places. It argues that this proposal allows us to delve deeper into the common elements, particularities and new nuances of these memories.

Resumen: Este artículo analiza tres conmemoraciones en torno a la desaparición de personas en México entre 2010 y 2021: la Semana y el Día Internacionales del Detenido-Desaparecido y la Marcha por la Dignidad: Madres Buscando a sus Hijos e Hijas. Se pregunta por el proceso de construcción de distintas memorias en torno a la desaparición y su expresión en conmemoraciones públicas, y propone una aproximación analítica a partir de cinco elementos articulados entre ellos: agentes, narrativas, estructura temporal, prácticas y lugares, y se argumenta que esta propuesta permite profundizar en los elementos comunes, las particularidades y nuevos matices de dichas memorias.

Abstract In the core of power of the Francoist dictatorship, they were aware that in order to completely wipe out the legacy of the Second Republic, weapons alone were not enough. It was in this context that the regime’s ideologues considered that the only way to erase the republican culture from memory, and to begin the ideological process of restoring the empire and Hispanic culture, was to transfer the war to a new field: education. On this battlefield, the history textbooks of Franco’s baccalaureate became the ideal instruments for rooting in the imagination of Spanish students the project of nation and national identity that the Franco regime sought to perpetuate. In particular, to achieve the creation of a “New Man” in charge of building the “New Spain”. For this paper we carried out a historical and historiographical analysis of how Franco’s school textbooks interpreted and justified the loss of the American Empire, paying special attention to the Mexican insurgent process.

Resumen En el núcleo de poder de la dictadura franquista fueron conscientes de que para arrasar por completo con el legado de la II República no bastaban solo las armas. Fue en este contexto donde los ideólogos del régimen consideraron que la única forma de borrar de la memoria la cultura republicana, e iniciar el proceso ideológico de restauración del Imperio y de la hispanidad, era trasladando la guerra a un nuevo campo: la educación. En este campo de batalla, los manuales escolares de historia del bachillerato franquista se convirtieron en los instrumentos idóneos para lograr el arraigo en el imaginario de los educandos españoles del proyecto de nación y de identidad nacional que buscó perpetuar el régimen franquista. En especial, para lograr la creación de un “Hombre Nuevo” encargado de construir la “Nueva España”. Para este trabajo realizamos un análisis histórico e historiográfico sobre cómo los manuales escolares franquistas interpretaron y justificaron la pérdida del Imperio americano, poniendo especial atención al proceso insurgente mexicano.

Résumé Dans les cercles les plus restreints du pouvoir de la dictature franquiste, on était conscient que les armes ne suffisaient pas pour éliminer complètement l’héritage de la Seconde République. Dans ce contexte, les idéologues du régime ont considéré que le seul moyen d’effacer la culture républicaine de la mémoire collective et d’entamer le processus idéologique de restauration de l’empire et de la culture hispanique était de transférer la guerre sur un nouveau terrain : l’éducation. Sur ce champ de bataille, les manuels d’histoire du baccalauréat franquiste sont devenus les outils parfaits pour enraciner dans l’imaginaire des élèves espagnols le projet de nation et d’identité nationale que le régime franquiste cherchait à perpétuer. Cette réécriture visait précisément à aboutir à la création d’un “homme nouveau” chargé de construire la “Nouvelle Espagne”. Pour cet article, nous avons réalisé une analyse historique et historiographique de la manière dont les manuels scolaires franquistes ont interprété et justifié la perte de l’empire américain, en portant une attention particulière au processus insurrectionnel mexicain.

ABSTRACT This article reconstructs the experiences and voices of women who create social organizations for the defense of industrial heritage, and their contributions to the preservation and maintenance of memories of the past. This research is a response to the crisis provoked by the deindustrialization process, which, from the perspective of social subjectivities, has led to a pursuit of a defense of industrial heritage and the reconstruction of social memory of the work and life experience in industrial spaces. By analyzing such memory, it is verified that the voices of women are clearly present. This article attempts to contribute to the knowledge that links the process of industrialization, the construction of an urban space and the constitution of workers’ families together, to comprehend the construction of collective dwelling forms.

RESUMEN Este artículo recupera las experiencias y voces de mujeres que crean organizaciones sociales para la defensa del patrimonio industrial, y sus aportes para el resguardo y cuidado de las memorias de ese pasado. La investigación es una respuesta a la crisis provocada por el proceso de desindustrialización, el cual, desde el punto de vista de las subjetividades sociales, ha derivado en la búsqueda de una defensa del patrimonio industrial y la reconstrucción de la memoria social de la experiencia del trabajo y de vida en los espacios industriales. Al analizar dicha memoria, se constata que las voces de mujeres están de manera nítida presentes en su recuperación. Con este artículo buscamos contribuir al conocimiento que vincula el proceso de industrialización, la construcción de un espacio urbano y la constitución de familias obreras, para comprender la construcción de formas colectivas de habitar.

Resumen: Este artículo se propone analizar la configuración metafórica de la fragmentariedad en la novela Museo de la Bruma (2019), del escritor chileno Galo Ghigliotto desde una perspectiva teórica y metodológica que atiende al cruce entre prácticas literarias y discursos sociales. La hipótesis sostiene que la figura de la fragmentariedad (textual y simbólica) entrelaza temporalidades y territorialidades diversas, que aluden a la escritura en sí misma como un dispositivo político y a la construcción de las memorias colectivas sobre las que se sostiene la idea de nación. De acuerdo con lo señalado, el análisis se presenta en dos grandes apartados referidos a la fragmentariedad de las historias que se cuentan y a la fragmentariedad de la trama narrativa. Por último, se apuntan una serie de reflexiones acerca del diálogo entre memoria, escritura e imaginación poética.

Abstract: This article analyzes the metaphorical configuration of fragmentation in the novel Museo de la Bruma (2019) by the Chilean writer Galo Ghigliotto from the intersection between literary practices and social discourses. The hypothesis maintains that the notion of fragment interweaves diverse temporalities and territorialities that allude to writing as a political device and to the construction of collective memories on which the idea of nation is sustained. The analysis is presented in two large sections referring to the fragmentation of the story and the fragmentation of the narrative plot. Finally, a series of reflections are noted about the dialogue between memory, writing and poetic imagination.

Abstract In this paper, I present the results and interpretation of the excavations in Enclosure 2 of the Pajchela Núcleo site, located in Cusi Cusi (Puna de Jujuy, Argentina). The excavation of this structure revealed a complex context, with the discovery of over ten thousand camelid bones along with a large quantity of rocks of various sizes and, below them, the burnt roof of the structure. It has been interpreted as a closure event involving a fire and the disposal of remains from a communal meal. The Pajchela Núcleo site is characterized by the presence of a large, stepped platform mound with chambers, chullparian structures, and spaces for agricultural production, and it has been interpreted as a place of memory. The discovery of this closure event marked by communal dining reinforces this interpretation and allows us to view Pajchela Núcleo as a space for gathering and meeting.

Resumen En este trabajo se presentan los resultados e interpretaciones de las excavaciones del Recinto 2 del sitio arqueológico Pajchela Núcleo, ubicado en la localidad de Cusi Cusi (Puna de Jujuy, Argentina). La excavación de este recinto presentó un contexto complejo, con el hallazgo de más de diez mil huesos de camélidos junto con una gran cantidad de rocas de variados tamaños y, por debajo, el techo quemado de la estructura. Se ha interpretado como un evento de clausura mediante un incendio y el arrojado de los restos de una comida colectiva al interior de la estructura. El sitio Pajchela Núcleo se caracteriza por la presencia de un gran montículo plataforma escalonado con cámaras, estructuras chullparias y espacios de producción agrícola, y ha sido interpretado como un lugar de memoria. El hallazgo de este evento de clausura signado por la comensalidad colectiva, refuerza esta interpretación y permite pensar a Pajchela Núcleo como un espacio de encuentro y reunión.

Abstract: The exclusion of the historical-cultural knowledge of native peoples in the teaching of history is something that has been verified in most countries with a colonial matrix. Despite the advances from the last decade of the last century around the demands of the original peoples, the evaluation of the educational policy in Chile indicates that the challenge of developing culturally sensitive pedagogies that make memories visible -culture, history and traditions - of the native peoples. Based on this background, the research was configured as a qualitative investigation with a case study approach. The research methodology involved fieldwork conducted within a segment of the Wallmapu territory (Chile and Argentina) in which interviews were administered to lonkos, kimches and kimeltuchefes. The data were subjected to open categorical analysis and account for the perspective of these traditional authorities on the need to incorporate knowledge about territorial dispossession, genocide and cultural aspects that are key to rethinking teaching from interculturality in the teaching of history. The conclusions leave in tension the monoculturality of the Chilean curricular design and the initial teacher training in contexts of cultural diversity.

Resumen: La exclusión de los conocimientos históricos-culturales de los pueblos originarios en la enseñanza de la historia, es algo que se ha constatado en la mayoría de los países con una matriz colonial. A pesar de los avances a partir de la última década del siglo pasado en torno a las demandas de los pueblos originarios, la evaluación de la política educativa en Chile indica que todavía persiste el desafío de desarrollar pedagogías culturalmente sensibles que visibilicen las memorias -cultura, historia y tradiciones- de los pueblos originarios. A partir de estos antecedentes, la investigación se configuró como una indagación cualitativa en un enfoque de estudios de casos cuyo propósito fue analizar los conocimientos históricos-culturales en la memoria social del pueblo mapuche, para repensar la enseñanza de la historia desde una perspectiva intercultural. El proceso de investigación se desarrolló a través de un trabajo de campo en parte del territorio del wallmapu (Chile y Argentina) en el cual se aplicaron entrevistas a lonkos, kimches y kimeltuchefes. Los datos fueron sometidos a análisis categorial abierto y dan cuenta de la perspectiva de estas autoridades tradicionales sobre la necesidad de incorporar en la enseñanza de la historia conocimientos sobre el despojo territorial, el genocidio y aspectos culturales que son claves para repensar la enseñanza desde la interculturalidad. Las conclusiones dejan en tensión la monoculturalidad del diseño curricular chileno y la formación inicial docente en contextos de diversidad cultural.

Resumo A pesquisa qualitativa com mulheres idosas militantes feministas é uma contribuição importante para a compreensão da historicidade da luta feminista e da realidade dessas mulheres. Seus resultados são relevantes não apenas para a academia, mas também para a sociedade como um todo, pois possibilitam a reflexão sobre as desigualdades sociais e a importância da luta pela igualdade de direitos para todas as mulheres. Dessa forma, essa escrita se refere a uma pesquisa realizada com mulheres ativistas feminista sem uma cidade do sul do Brasil, compreendendo essas mulheres como precursoras no fortalecimento político e democrático da luta por direitos das mulheres, em suas ações locais. As mulheres participantes são reconhecidas como protagonistas na construção do movimento feminista na cidade. A proposta da pesquisa narrativa (auto)biográfica foi a ferramenta metodológica adotada. Os resultados possibilitaram uma compreensão histórica do processo de construção do movimento feminista na cidade e região, a partir da construção de uma memória coletiva do movimento social. Os dados obtidos apontaram por uma semelhança do contexto local com o nacional, onde a luta contra a ditadura foi a pauta comum onde o movimento feminista surgiu. Mas também foi possível perceber especificidades locais que muito influenciaram na construção e consolidação do movimento social na cidade. Conclui-se que as narrativas (auto)biográficas foram uma oportunidade valiosa para conhecer a vivência e a luta dessas mulheres e para entender a importância da luta feminista para a construção de uma sociedade mais justa e igualitária. Suas histórias são um testemunho da força e da coragem de mulheres e servem como inspiração para a continuidade do movimento.

Abstract Qualitative research with elderly feminist activists is an important contribution to understanding the historicity of the feminist struggle and the reality of these women. Its results are relevant not only for the academy, but also for society as a whole, as they make it possible to reflect on social inequalities and the importance of fighting for equal rights for all women. In this way, this writing refers to research carried out with women feminist activists in a city in the south of Brazil, understanding these women as precursors in the political and democratic strengthening of the struggle for women's rights, in their local actions. The participating women are recognized as protagonists in the construction of the feminist movement in the city. The proposed (auto)biographical narrative research was the methodological tool adopted. The results enabled a historical understanding of the construction process of the feminist movement in the city and region, based on the construction of a collective memory of the social movement. The data obtained pointed to a similarity between the local context and the national one, where the fight against the dictatorship was the common agenda where the feminist movement emerged. But it was also possible to perceive local specificities that greatly influenced the construction and consolidation of the social movement in the city. It is concluded that the (auto)biographical narratives were a valuable opportunity to learn about the experience and struggle of these women and to understand the importance of the feminist struggle for the construction of a more just and egalitarian society. Their stories are a testament to the strength and courage of women and serve as inspiration for the movement to continue.
