Studies of military memory of Brazilian dictatorship: balance and possibilities

Studies based on oral sources have produced good reflections about the dictatorship established in Brazil in 1964. Among them, the memory of Army officers that took part in the regime has received special attention. In contrast, the memory of the banished officers has been forgotten. This paper examines the main analysis of military memory of the dictatorship in order to show their limits and to point issues that could enrich the studies on this subject.
