El poder del lugar y su potencial político en la legitimación de la(s) memoria(s) del conflicto político armado
The power of the place and its political potential in legitimizing the memory(ies) of the armed political conflict
Abstract (en)
This article points for a reflection on the issue of memories of the
armed political conflict and/or war, which could contribute to politically
boost the efforts and initiatives of many organizations of victims
in the country. In the proposals being made by critical geopolitics in
the framework of discussions on contemporary social thinking, specifically
regarding the importance of space in social and political processes
—which, by the way, questions the state-centered power conception—,
confers an enormous political force to other spaces and places, closer to
the individuals that, like the victims, live in more micro and everyday
places and spaces.
Keywords: memory, space, place, victims, critical geopolitics.
Abstract (es)
El artículo apunta a desarrollar una reflexión sobre el tema de las memorias del conflicto político armado y/o de la guerra, que podría contribuir a potenciar políticamente los esfuerzos y las iniciativas de muchas organizaciones de víctimas en el país. En las propuestas que viene haciendo la geopolítica crítica en el marco de discusiones del pensamiento social contemporáneo, específicamente en lo referente a la importancia del espacio en los procesos sociales y políticos —lo que, de paso, cuestiona la concepción estadocéntrica del poder—, se le confiere una enorme fuerza política a otros espacios y lugares, más cercanos a los sujetos que, como las víctimas, habitan lugares y espacios más micro y cotidianos.
