By Oriol López i Badell and Jordi Palou- Loverdos, Memorial Democràtic, Spain Remembering the bombing of Gernika is a useful exercise to analyze the indiscriminate attack on a population that was identified with a particular ideology.

THE “NO MORE” AND THE RENOUNCE TO FORGET LINK OF MANY MEMORIAL ANS SITES OF CONSCIENCE MUSEUMS OF THE WORLD
