VILLA GOMEZ, Juan David et al. Memory Traps, Induced Forgetfulness, and Biased Memories. Social Representations of Historical Events. Ágora U.S.B. [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.1, pp.13-40.  Epub 07-Out-2023. ISSN 1657-8031.  https://doi.org/10.21500/16578031.6488.

Social representations around the historical facts of the armed conflict are marked by a cognitive and mnemic bias, accompanied by forgetfulness and silences, and by processes of attribution of responsibility in which the guerrillas, especially the FARC-EP, are assumed as the main responsible and absolute enemy. This makes the responsibility of the other stakeholders (paramilitaries, security forces, and the State) invisible, by generating a convenient and induced oblivion, which is functional to the interests of certain social sectors that hold political, economic, and media power, which promote impunity and contribute to the maintenance of political violence in order to maintain their power. These hegemonic memory processes constitute a psychosocial barrier to the construction of peace, democracy, and reconciliation in Colombia.

Palavras-chave : Attribution of Responsibility; Psychosocial Barriers to Peace; Armed Conflict; Victimist Memories; Oblivion; Social Representations of Historical Facts; and Hegemonic Memories.
