Covering more than six decades and based on original archival research, critical analysis of sources and interviews, the book offers the first plural account of the public memorialization of this contested past Lusophone Africa, focusing on diachronic and synchronic processes of mnemonic production. This innovative exercise highlights the changing and crossed nature of political memories and social representations through time, emphasizing three modes of mnemonic intersections: the intersection of distinct historical times; the intersection between multiple products and practices of memory; and the intersection connecting the different countries and national histories. The Portuguese Colonial War and the African Liberation Struggles: Memory, Politics and Uses of the Past is the major and final output of the research developed by CROME - Crossed Memories, Politics of Silence, a project funded by a Starting Grant (715593) from the European Research Council (ERC). The book advances current knowledge on Lusophone Africa and deepens ongoing conceptual and epistemological discussions regarding the relationship between social and individual memories, the dialectics between memory, power and silence, and the uses and representations of the past in postcolonial states and societies"-- Provided by publisher. 606 $aNational liberation movements$zAfrica, Portuguese-speaking Historiography 607 $aAfrica$xHistory 1960- 607 $aPortugal Colonies$zAfrica Historiography 615 0$aNational liberation movements 676 $a325.3469096 702 $aCardina$b Miguel 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910741327003321 996 $aPortuguese Colonial War and the African Liberation Struggles$93555674 997 $aUNINA
