Hello everyone
I heard a snippet on Sunday's radio about the ratification of a Law of Historical Memory on 31st October in Spain and wondered if anyone knew more about it?
To give you a bit of background I found this from Google on the Economist site. I know it's not the most objective of sources. http://www.economist.com/displaystory.cfm?story_id=9989965
'The historical memory law is expressly directed at the victims' descendants. The draft mixes grand symbolic gestures with smaller, concrete measures. On the symbolic front, it repeals some moribund Francoist laws; it also orders the removal of the few remaining symbols of Francoism from public buildings. On the concrete side, it opens up archives and provides for the exhumation of those tossed into anonymous graves by Francoist death squads.'
Best wishes
Sam
