The Past That Does Not Pass: The Shadow of Dictatorships in Southern Europe and Latin America

Many memories have been constructed around the horrors committed during the European and Latin American dictatorships of the 20th century. *The Past That Does Not Pass* is a collection of texts that analyze how, after periods of redemocratization, the past was revisited, examining the struggle for justice and the authoritarian legacies that still await historical interpretations, contributing to the dissipation of "the shadows of dictatorships," as the authors have taken approaches that have so far been little explored in historiography on the subject. It is important reading, not only for scholars of "present-day history" but also for the general public, who only know it from accounts of previous generations.
