Abstract
I present and analyze in this work the presentations
of the internal armed conflict (1980-
2000) that struck the communities of the
Peruvian south-central sierra with particular
strength and violence. Said conflict is framed
in a long history of discrimination and
racism, which has characterized the relationship
between the State and Quechua-speaking
citizens. This experience is vital to understand
the form and content acquired by the
memories of the conflict that these communities
have, as well as the artefacts that comprise
the exhibition of the memory museums. Based
on an ethnographic field work, I will focus
on analyzing and setting in context the objects
found in the exhibition of the museum «So
It Does not Happen Again » of the National
Group of Kidnapped, Imprisoned, and Missing
Relatives of Peru (anfasep) of Ayacucho.
