 Some researchers have argued that we may have a moral duty to remember. Margalit (2002), for example, argues that we have a duty to remember the victims of radical evil. Such an obligation—which, as Blustein (2008) points out, might hold either at the individual or the collective level—would be consistent with the spirit behind truth and reconciliation commissions and similar institutions (Neumann &amp; Thompson 2015). But the existence of a duty to remember is controversial, with some maintaining that there is no general duty to remember the past and even that there may in some cases be a duty to forget (Rieff 2016).
