LIRA, Elizabeth. Trauma, Grief, Reparation and Memory. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2010, n.36, pp.14-28. ISSN 0123-885X.

The article describes and reflects on the experience of psychosocial and therapeutic work carried out with victims of human rights violations during the military regime in Chile (1973-1990). This experience contributed to the inclusion of medical and psychological care in the State reparation policies since 1990. The evolution in the modes of treatment and psychosocial intervention are discussed in the light of the tasks and dilemmas which emerge in the context of political transition: recognition of and redress for victims, the truth or concealment of crimes, justice versus impunity; oblivion or different forms of memory and their impact on the lives of the victims and on the political reconciliation process.
