| Итог: | This article aims at analyzing the memorialization of the political change in Portugal, Spain and Greece. The three transitions to democracy occurred in the same historical period and all three countries followed a common path of political democratization and integration in the institutional space of EEC/EU. Although this general background influenced to a certain degree those memorialization processes, each country followed its own path, according to the historical ground in which the dictatorships took shape, the inner characteristics of the political changes, the politics of memory operated by each state and the very post-dictatorial nature of each society. Considering the already existing academic production on the memory of the Transitions and the sociopolitical dynamics that have been focused on this past in each country, we make an original comparative analysis, identifying the main common features and singularities of these processes. |
