Abstract

What are transarchives? This term refers to the interweaving between different archives that preserve materials pertaining to the same production context. More specifically, this book focuses on audiovisual and paper documents related to Bologna’s social movements between the end of the Eighties and the beginning of the Nineties – the era of the Pantera student movement, the explosion of the phenomenon of social centers and the demonstrations for the occupation of houses. Browsing these repositories, the "transarchivist" tries to map and relate such documents, with the aim of understanding how they constitute traces to follow in the snowy path of history.
