Abstract
SASTRE DIAZ, Camila Fernanda. That is How it Happened. Nobody Told Us. Analysis of Visual Artifacts of the «So It Does Not Happen Again» of ANFASEP in Ayacucho. Mem. Soc. [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.40, pp.26-42. ISSN 0122-5197. https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.mys20-40.caav.
I present and analyze in this work the presentations of the internal armed conflict (19802000) that struck the communities of the Peruvian south-central sierra with particular strength and violence. Said conflict is framed in a long history of discrimination and racism, which has characterized the relationship between the State and Quechua-speaking citizens. This experience is vital to understand the form and content acquired by the memories of the conflict that these communities have, as well as the artefacts that comprise the exhibition of the memory museums. Based on an ethnographic field work, I will focus on analyzing and setting in context the objects found in the exhibition of the museum «So It Does not Happen Again» of the National Group of Kidnapped, Imprisoned, and Missing Relatives of Peru (ANFASEP) of Ayacucho.
