Abstract
Theprocesses of democratization of the Iberian societies initiallyopened a stage of liberation from the memory of the dictatorialpast to later adopt strategies of “reconciliation”, accompaniedby the silencing of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) andthe Portuguese Colonial War (1961-1974). In this text I question the politics of memory developed in the first decade ofthe transition to democracy, in Portugal and Spain, from thecases Os Anos do Seculo (1979) and Rocio (1980), as means ofreproducing memories that defied the political, ecclesiasticaland military powers, launched legal proceedings, mobilizedthe media and called public opinion to a debate on the right tofreedom of expression.
