      Sælthun, Sigurd (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2021-05-18)
      I dei siste åra har Spania vore utsett for ei gradvis aukande splid i synet på Den spanske borgarkrigen og diktaturet som fulgte. Under overgangen til demokrati valgte ein å ikkje behandle fortida, men inngjekk i staden ei uskreven pakt om å ikkje omtale den. Når denne pakta vart broten i 2000 førte det til ei større minnekonflikt braut ut, splitta samfunnet og åpna gamle sår. I senter for denne ...
