Popis: | This essay reflects on the experience of time as a factor of social cohesion and on its attributive force with respect to the configurations of law. In this regard; a decisive component is the simultaneity of regimes of historicity and the consequent dispute about the past. The article points out its prominence in the transitions from dictatorship to democracy and; in particular; in that of Italy in the second half of the 20th century. The discussion then turns to the dispute about the memory; to consider the question of the rights to truth; to restitution and to resentment; highlighting how history; if declined in a victimological perspective; can make an original contribution to understanding the problem of the justiciability of the past. |
