Description: A study of memory regimes in popular and official Chilean thought.
Review Quotes: "A path-breaking study of history and memory in Chile's legendary nitrate north that ties together the massacres of miners in the early twentieth century and the human rights abuses of the Pinochet era. A highly original contribution to memory studies, gender studies, and Chilean history."--Peter Winn, editor of Victims of the Chilean Miracle: Workers and Neoliberalism in the Pinochet Era, 1973-2002
