About

In Portugal, in a framework of dominant representations still marked by colonial aphasia, the debate on the war has been increasingly drawn into the broader debate on colonialism. This intervention aims to map the historical processes of organizing the forgetting of the war and colonial violence in the country, examining the ways in which they have recently been challenged.
