Néstor Braunstein falleció el 7 de septiembre del 2022. Ese mismo día, nos hizo llegar a varias personas el siguiente e-mail, una singular carta de despedida en la que extiende más allá el debate psicoanalítico sobre uno de los temas que era extremadamente importante para él: el derecho a elegir dignamente cómo vivir y cómo morir. Publicamos en este número la epístola, que ya se ha reproducido en otros espacios, espe- rando que sus palabras ayuden a comprender mejor el riesgo que conlleva ser humanos.

Memory is the ability to preserve and retrieve information along with past experiences. The projects \"Garden of Memory\" and \"Attimi Sospesi\" bring to light, from the rubble of the Second World War, the words of the protagonists and the history of Esperia and Cassino. Scientific research, storytelling and digital technologies allow us to piece together, look after and hand down the memory of these communities and lead it to future generations.

In the West Papua conflict, fear fuels both Papuan ethnonationalist and Indonesian nationalist sentiment. We argue that this reciprocal fear and memoria passionis plays a significant role in fuelling political violence. On the one hand, it provokes Papuan activists to respond violently to Indonesian military operations. Fear of losing future generations of indigenous Papuans has strengthened their identity as Papuans and encouraged them to join armed movements against Indonesia. On the other hand, fear of West Papuan independence leads the Indonesian military and police to conduct operations against members of the Free Papua Movement and affiliated groups and other activists not in the independence movement. This results in a \"reciprocal fear-fuelled nationalism,\" whereby Indonesian security forces and Papuan separatist activists are drawn into increasing conflict. In this context, fear becomes institutionalized and socially constructed. By understanding the unending violent conflict in Tanah Papua as related to the transfer of emotions across generations, it becomes clear a military operations approach will not be effective in the long term. Non-violent approaches, especially dialogue with separatist groups, will be more effective in breaking the chain of violent memories, resulting in more positive outcomes for conflict resolution in Papua. Learning from negotiations between the government of Indonesia and the Free Aceh Movement in 2005, we support the proposition that dialogue is the best entry point by which to end this prolonged separatist armed conflict.
