ABSTRACT

‘Memory discourse’ takes an important role in the paradigm shift of archival science. Memory points to the limitation of ‘records as evidence’ that had been assumed to be representable and redefines the record as an infinite interpretable medium by captured memory. Now, recordkeeping are given a new question as ‘what world to remember’ beyond ‘how to remember the world’ between ‘visible’ records and ‘invisible’ memories. And, the power of memory’s personal, present, and everyday aspect is linked to the argument that the keeping of memory and records itself can take a social justice role. In this article, we examine the western archival science’s memory discourse landscape comprehensively and reconstruct it to examine the possibility of memories’ social justice or archival justice.
