collective memory  

Definición

  • Although once considered a subspeciality within the domain of the sociology of knowledge, the examination of collective behavior or “social memory studies” has developed over the past two decades into a vibrant theoretical domain, linking sociological theory, historical sociology, social psychology, and the sociology of culture. The collective memory approach argues that history enters into social life through the means by which individuals, organizations, and states interpret, recall, and commemorate the past.The legitimating theoretical text in this field is Maurice Halbwachs's 1925 work, The Social Frameworks of Memory, finally translated into English in 1992.
