| Abstract: | This paper aims to study the production and circulation of commercial and political uses of the past by the Brazilian extreme right, based on two videos about the Brazilian civil-military dictatorship: one by the Brasil Paralelo Company and one by the YouTuber Felipe Castanhari. It is argued that the narrative elaborated by both videos promotes a conservative public history through a memory politics and what we call the “past on demand.” “On demand” because the idea of historical truth is reduced to a choice made by the viewer watching the video on YouTube. We contribute to analyzing memory disputes about the dictatorship in virtual environments, linking content to form. |
