Summary:	From 1963 to 1974 the PAIGC conducted an armed struggle against the Portuguese colonial government in Guinea Bissau. For the Portuguese metropole the war was militarily and politically disastrous, leading in 1974 to the toppling of a whole regime and what was left of its colonial empire. The Carnation Revolution brought to an end the dictatorship and led to a political reorientation towards democracy, turning what had been a Portuguese province into the state of Guinea Bissau. For both countries the war represents a far-reaching aspect of their history, which historically weaves them together and also separates them. This book examines the collective memories it awakes in the two countries and connection in which they stand to one another. It focuses on the policies of remembrance of both countries, relates them to the narratives of those affected and locates the places of memory.
