Postcolonialism: survival or remnants: a critical approach to the article "history, memory, and forgiveness" by Wahid ben Bouaziz

Abstract EN

This article falls within the study of the Maghreb's critical achievement in postcolonial theory.

It addresses the issue of memory as one of the categories of postcolonial theory at the expense of history, based on Wahid Ben Bouaziz's article, which dealt with the book Memory, History and Forgetting by Paul Ricoeur.

One of the results of this study was that memory and history should not be confused, because each of them has its own notes, stations, and mechanisms.

Furthermore, the issue of overcoming the flaws of memory for France and the Algerian people is subject to the requirements of post-colonial trauma
