Abstract

This research presents an in-depth study of the relationship between collective memory and the construction of social identity. It seeks to analyze the role of collective memory in shaping both individual and group identities, focusing on how this memory is transmitted across generations and how it influences the formation of social identity. Collective memory is not merely a record of past events; rather, it is a dynamic process that is continuously reshaped according to the social, political, and cultural conditions experienced by societies. This makes it an effective tool for strengthening group belonging and fostering social cohesion.
