| Descripción: | The memory, moreover, the recent memory of a determined social group, in a space, time and context, constitutes part of the social and collective heritage. Indeed, memory is also part of heritage, a concept that has evolved from the monumentalist conception to new approaches currently present in the social sciences. It is along this line that memory is understood and defended by the women who suffered political imprisonment and torture, in the Pisagua Prison Camp, located in the Tarapacá region of Chile, 163 kilometers from Iquique, the regional capital. The political confinement center operated as of September 1973, in the wake of the military coup that took place in Chile; however, it had also fulfilled that same role on two other occasions. Now senior citizens, these women decide to present their testimony, today, at this phase of their lives, motivated by a deep feeling that translates into one slogan: So that never again. With this engagement, they make visible their particular situation as surviving women, who, despite all the pain, have reintegrated into society, established families and kept their ideals as lively or even more so than yesterday. |
