Navigating the paradox of repair: Indigenous genocide and public education in Minnesota and Manitoba
Un "apartheid" en las cabezas? El genocidio como identidad heredada
Genocidio es varias cosas al mismo tiempo: 1) un crimen codificado en la Convención de Naciones Unidas de 1948; 2) un término analítico desarrollado por académicos en distintas disciplinas; y, 3) un concepto vernacularizado que adoptan, habitan y despliegan de diversas formas individuos, grupos de víctimas y actores políticos. En los usos del término anida siempre una paradoja que me propongo desgranar en este artículo. Por un lado, permite que q…
Such Hatred Has Never Flourished on Our Soil”: The Politics of Holocaust Memory in Turkey and Spain
In this article, we analyze local Holocaust Remembrance Day ( HRD ) ceremonies promoted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance ( IHRA ) in Spain and Turkey. We investigate whether these memory practices have the potential to lead to a cosmopolitan engagement with the host countries’ own pasts. Focused on the same memorial events in highly contrasting and diverse national contexts, this article examines how supranational memory discou…
The Holocaust across Generations. Trauma and Its Inheritance among Descendants of Survivors
The Sins of the Fathers: Germany, Memory, Method
There is no state that has been and continues to be as haunted by the spectres of a criminal past as is Germany. Jeffrey Olick’s The Sins of the Fathers: Germany, Memory, Method examines, with an i

Ghosts of the Holocaust in Franco’s mass graves: Cosmopolitan memories and the politics of “never again”
This essay presents a sociological analysis of what is known in Spain as the “recovery of historical memory” and the politics deriving from this recovery. This process was catalyzed by the exhumations of the remains of victims of Francoism that have been under way since the beginning of the twenty-first century. In order to do this, we will use the literature on cosmopolitan sociology and provide a dialogue between this sociology and recent devel…
Neanderthal man: In search of lost genomes
Molecular anthropology has come of age. This book informs us that the heritage of Asians and other people is deep and complex. Like all people, Asians have African roots going back to pre-human anc
Recuerdo y comunicación: Sociohermenéutica de rituales de memoria
El análisis de rituales performativos de memoria supone un reto metodológico para la investigación social interpretativa, ya que las interacciones rituales están inscritas en un contexto más amplio, que está determinado por las tradiciones simbólicas y por los acuerdos institucionales que configuran el marco de las ceremonias. A partir del estudio de ceremonias conmemorativas del Día Internacional de Recuerdo del Holocausto se mostrará la interco…
Perspektiven einer Visuellen Soziologie
The Blind Spots of Secularization
According to several international surveys Spain is among the western countries with the most negative views of Jews. While quantitative data on the topic accumulates, there is a significant lack of interpretative approaches that might explain the particular Spanish case. This paper presents the background, methodology and major results of a discussion group-based study on antisemitism, which was conducted in Spain in the autumn of 2009. The stud…

Consuming history and memory through mass media products
The representation of the past through products of the ‘culture industry’ bears the history of a long debate between detractors and optimists. This controversy becomes especially significant in a time where commercial audiovisual media affect in unprecedented ways the content and the form in which massive audiences relate to the events of the past. Even more so in a so-called postmodern moment in which public confidence in the real is overall in …
Los vacíos de Sefarad. La memoria del Holocausto en España
Spain is a country with no immediate historical connection to the Holocaust. However, in recent years discussions about the Holocaust have gained a more significant presence in Spain ́s public life. This irruption of the Holocaust in the spheres of politics, education and culture can be explained as a consequence of political and institutional convergence with Europe as well as of the growing debate over the memory of the crimes of the Franco dic…
