概要 This short paper is based on the author's oral presentation for the artist/critic-interactive programme "Performing Explorations" (Buenos Aires, 2017) under the umbrella of FIBA (Festival Internacional de Buenos Aires). It compares Mauricio Kartun's Terrenal (Argentina) and Akihito Nakatsuru's The Undecided People (Japan) in terms of how retrospective gaze is called into question to raise political issues deeply embedded in national history. In both plays are inscribed a sort of willing political oblivion of the people - a populist traces of oblivion that indicate not what people forgot, but how. Just as nostalgia is simply another form of dissatisfaction with the present, so it is a way of partially forgetting what happened in the past in order to justify the ongoing discontent about the legacy not rightfully inherited.
