Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper explores social memory as a dynamic, agentive and semiotically mediated process drawing on some key principles from Vygotsky’s and Halliday’s work. These authors’ basic principles are defined and later applied to the analysis of the transmission of contested memories of the recent past in Uruguay. The paper concludes by reflecting on how this dialectical, historical and semiotic approach to investigating complex phenomena provide a unique lens to understanding social memory.
