description This article considers the connection between history and memory as foundations for knowledge of the past. Firstly, this article is interested in the differentiation between memory and history. Regardless of the fact that both of these are effective tools for the reconstruction of the past, memory and history have relevant differences which have been studied from multiple viewpoints – not exclusively a historical one –,facilitating a fascinating academic and intellectual debate. Secondly, this article analyzes the way in which these two concepts have been addressed in the irst six issues of Historia Y MEMORIA journal, which proposes historiography, as a ield of analysis that allows researchers in the social sciences to discuss the contributions of memory to historiographical construction, and how memory contributes to the creation of both individual and collective remembrance. In the irst six journal issues, the relationship between history and memory is found in the subject matter, theoretical approaches, use of sources and proposed methodologies, bringing us closer to alternative prognoses about the past, that include a permanent dialogue with the present.

Este artículo reflexiona sobre la relación entre historia y memoria como fundamentos del conocimiento del pasado. El texto se interesa, en primer lugar, por la diferenciación entre memoria e historia, que si bien son instrumentos al servicio de la construcción del pasado, tienen entre sí diferencias relevantes, las cuales en la actualidad han sido estudiadas desde distintos campos —no exclusivamente el histórico—, que han permitido abrir un debate académico e intelectual fascinante. En segundo lugar, es analizada la manera como se han abordado estos dos conceptos en los primeros seis números de la Revista Historia Y MEMORIA, con lo cual se propone, desde la historiografía, un campo de análisis que le permita a los investigadores en ciencias sociales dialogar sobre los aportes de la memoria a la construcción historiográfica y cómo la memoria contribuye a fijar un recuerdo individual y colectivo. En los seis números de la revista la relación entre historia y memoria se ha podido apreciar desde las temáticas, los enfoques, el uso de fuentes y las metodologías planteadas, acercándonos a otras visiones sobre el pasado, pero en un diálogo permanente con el presente. Cet article porte sur le lien entre histoire et mémoire comme fondement de la connaissance du passé. Le texte s’intéresse, d’abord, à la différenciation entre mémoire et histoire, qui bien qu’ils soient des instruments au service de la construction du passé, ont entre eux des différences signiicatives, lesquellesont été étudiées actuellement dans différents domaines —pas exclusivement l’histoire—, qui ont permis d’ouvrir un débat académique et intellectuel fascinant. Deuxièmement est analysée la manière dont on a abordé ces deux concepts dansles six premiers numéros de la revue Histoire ET MÉMOIRE, et par la suite on propose, à partir de l’historiographie, un domaine d’analyse qui permet aux chercheurs en sciences sociales de dialoguer sur les contributions de la mémoire àla construction historiographique et comment la mémoire contribue à ixer un souvenir individuel et collectif. Dans les éditions de la revue, la relation entre histoire et mémoire a été considérée à partir des thématiques, des analyses, de l’utilisation de sources et des méthodologies utilisées, ce qui nous permet de nous approcher à d’autres interprétations du passé, dans un dialogue permanent avec le présent.
