Rethinking the processes of memory reconstruction based on dissimilar contexts and alternative connotations, allows us to review that there are neither univocal memories, nor homogeneous behaviors when one remembers. Accordingly, this article puts forward new items of interpretation of memories based on territorial alternatives, while these memories are dialogic, narrative, communitarian, symbolic, and performative. These categories are perceived and interrelated in each of the narratives that are uttered as resistance to oblivion and as instruments of reparation and non-repetition.

Keywords : armed conflict; right to truth; collective imaginaries; collective memory; pluralism; reconstruction; narrative; community reparation; war victim; violence.
