is dissertation studies memory in the aftermath of the Chilean dictatorship through the Revista de Critica Cultural, edited by the prominent cultural critic, Nelly Richard In response to officially sanctioned narrative forms of memory which appealed to notions such as 'reconciliation' and 'consensus', transforming political compromises into transcendental moral principles in order to establish a redemptive sense of closure, the journal insists on a notion of memory in a state of constant reactivation in the present. Distinctive because of its championing of neo-avantgarde art and literature, the journal's articulation of alternative approaches to memory has been charged with the aesthetics of postmodern fragmentation that sets ii apart from the militant orthodoxy of the traditional Left.
