Fragmentos de La Memoria Colectiva

The making of the memory is a collective process. The presence of a common language and significance in the members of a group makes them to turn to their past in a collective way; in other words, they invest with the same and shared sense the events that constituted them as an entity. The historic memory is one and close itself upon the limits that a process of social decantation imposes; collective memory is diverse and is transformed when is actualized by the groups that participate in its reconstrution: the pas never is the same.
