PARDO ABRIL, Neyla Graciela. Communication: spaces and collective memories. Case study. Leng. Soc. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.2, pp.113-132.  Epub Dec 05, 2022. ISSN 1729-9721.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15381/lengsoc.v21i2.22554.

In the current sociopolitical situation in Colombia (2022), and in the scenario of the post-agreement in coexistence with the internal armed conflict, the relationship between memory and space is studied from tMultimodal and Multimedia Critical Discourse Studies (MMCDS). This is formulated from its communicative and political nature, having as a starting point that memory is a social construction, spatio-temporally anchored in the daily life of communities. The objective of this article is to formulate a reflection on the socio-discursive and political-cultural construction of memory, to address spatio-temporality in a place of memory in Bogotá, based on its communicative, symbolic and political dimension. In a first point, the relationship between memory and socio-communicative practices with the processes of construction of meaning is addressed. Second, the memory-space-place relationship is explored and how it serves as an anchor for the memory of the Colombian armed conflict, whose temporality exceeds six decades. In this process of design, production and socialization, the symbolic-discursive dimension is installed. Finally, in the third point, the Peace and Reconciliation Memory Center of the Capital District-Bogotá (CMPR) is semiotic-discursively analyzed as part of the public symbolic landscape, whose material and actional concretion is the sense of multiculturalism, social and political heterogeneity.

Keywords : MMCDS; space-time; collective memory; CMPR; semiotic landscape.
