Abstract
Com Paul Ricoeur pensamos a dimensão política da memória traumática a partir da recente
ditadura brasileira. A reflexão parte da percepção de que o legado autoritário impede a
consolidação da democracia e que os traumas da repressão política não foram esquecidos.
Sem desconsiderar a prioridade das vítimas, refletimos a elaboração do trauma como
reconhecimento e partilha de um passado comum cujo aspecto nefasto dos não ditos passa,
dentre outras questões, pela legitimação da violência de Estado no contemporâneo.
Refletimos então acerca dos conceitos de anistia, justiça e perdão, correlacionando-os com a
vitimização promovida pelas novas democracias. No percurso destacamos o papel do
testemunho e a função mediadora dos atos de justiça para um devir de paz social, pois se a
memória nos remete ao passado, a promessa de justiça nos leva ao futuro.
Along Paul Ricoeur we think of the political dimension of the traumatic memory resulting from the existence of the recent Brazilian dictatorship. This reflection comes from the perception that the authoritarian legacy prevents the consolidation of democracy and that the traumas of political repression have not been forgotten. Without disregarding the priority of the victims, we reflect of the elaboration of the trauma as recognizing and sharing a common past whose nefarious aspects of the unspoken becomes, among other issues, the legitimation of the state violence in the current times. We then reflect on the concepts of amnesty, justice and forgiveness, correlating them with the victimhood promoted by the new democracies. On the way we highlight the mediating role of testimony and acts of justice for a becoming of social peace, because if memory takes us back to the past, the promise of justice leads us to the future.
