This article analyzes the investment of contemporary political techniques in the destruction and building anew of urban spaces of violence in relation to the politics of collective memory. Using the framework of necropolitics, I show that the spatial methods of necropolitics regulate collective memory on both the involuntary and traumatic levels. This work takes place not only through destruction and elimination of sites, but also their rebuilding. Critical engagement with the necropolitical work of memory opens the possibility of another kind of archive that forges counter-memories from spaces of death
