This paper presents a state of the discussion on the social studies of memory in relation to different types of socio-natural disasters. The objective of the research was to examine the scientific production in the conceptual triad memory-disaster-identity to facilitate the understanding of the field of study and encourage research interest. To this end, it reviewed academic production between 2000 and 2020 at the national, Latin American, and global levels. Eighty-three texts were compiled and analyzed, showing concern for assessing the incidence of the disaster in the configuration of the processes of remembering and forgetting of the affected individuals, of society and of the disruptive event itself. The results show that, although significant progress has been made in the twenty years analyzed, the disciplinary field is still fragile in countries with a high propensity for disaster risk. Thus, the main conclusion that can be drawn is related to the insufficiency of studies that recover the memories of socio-natural disasters, that collect the voices of their victims, and that vindicate them as a form of material and symbolic reparation, after the disruptive event that transforms the existence of those affected.
