This article focuses on the production of the Memoria Histórica (MH: Historic Memory) Croup Colombian political violence and armed conflicts, analyzing the way the object of research has been studied and the connections this production has with memory policies and the construction of subjectivities. Even though the group distances itself from the official versions of history, their narrative becomes official history given the way the group has anchored itself into State memory policies. The group, by placing emphasis on the experiences and significations of victims, influences the understanding of conflict, the creation of subjectivities, and the formation of policy in a special way, revealing some of their configurations.
