LADB Article Id: 55802 ISSN: 1060-4189 Arrest of Suspected Assassin Yields New Demands for Pinochet Resignation by LADB Staff Category/Department: Chile Published: 1996-01-26 In mid-January, police in Argentina arrested the person believed responsible for the 1974 assassination in Buenos Aires of Chilean Gen. Carlos Prats and his wife Sofia Couthbert. The individual arrested is a former Chilean intelligence agent, and his capture has brought renewed calls for the resignation of Chile's army chief, Gen. Augusto Pinochet. The case has also resurfaced tensions between the Chilean military and the civilian government of President Eduardo Frei. On Jan. 19, Argentine police in Buenos Aires arrested Enrique Lautaro Arancibia Clavel, a Chilean citizen who is suspected of being the intellectual author of the 1974 assassination of Gen. Prats and his wife. The arrest was announced by Argentine President Carlos Saul Menem, who called it "a new victory for justice and for the federal police." Police sources said Arancibia Clavel had been sought for years by Argentine, Chilean, and Italian authorities in connection with the deaths of Prats and his wife, as well as for carrying out other assassinations on behalf of the Chilean secret service (Direccion de Inteligencia Nacional, DINA).

  • A History of Political Murder in Latin America Clear of Conflict, Children Anywhere, and the Elderly—All These Have Been Its Victims
    Chapter 1 Targets and Victims His dance of death was famous. In 1463, Bernt Notke painted a life-sized, thirty-meter-long “Totentanz” that snaked around the chapel walls of the Marienkirche in Lübeck, the picturesque port town outside Hamburg in northern Germany. Individuals covering the entire medieval social spec- trum were represented, ranging from the Pope, the Emperor and Empress, and a King, followed by (among others) a duke, an abbot, a nobleman, a merchant, a maiden, a peasant, and even an infant. All danced reluctantly with grinning images of the reaper in his inexorable procession. Today only photos remain. Allied bombers destroyed the church during World War II. If Notke were somehow transported to Latin America five hundred years later to produce a new version, he would find no less diverse a group to portray: a popular politician, Jorge Eliécer Gaitán, shot down on a main thoroughfare in Bogotá; a churchman, Archbishop Oscar Romero, murdered while celebrating mass in San Salvador; a revolutionary, Che Guevara, sum- marily executed after his surrender to the Bolivian army; journalists Rodolfo Walsh and Irma Flaquer, disappeared in Argentina and Guatemala; an activ- ist lawyer and nun, Digna Ochoa, murdered in her office for defending human rights in Mexico; a soldier, General Carlos Prats, murdered in exile for standing up for democratic government in Chile; a pioneering human rights organizer, Azucena Villaflor, disappeared from in front of her home in Buenos Aires never to be seen again. They could all dance together, these and many other messengers of change cut down by this modern plague.

Barr-Melej Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT EIDAHL, BRAD T., Ph.D., December 2017, History Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile Director of Dissertation: Patrick M. Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

Santiago, Lom Ediciones, 2008, 2 volúmenes, 902 págs. ISBN 978-956-282-969-4 El colega e historiador chileno radicado en Bélgica, Doctor en Historia por la Universidad Libre de Bruselas y académico del Institut des Hautes Études des Communications Sociales (Bruselas), Jorge Magasich Airola, me ha obsequiado su último trabajo intitulado Los que dijeron No. Historia del movimiento de los marinos antigolpistas de 1973. Motivado por la conversación con Jorge Magasich y por la lectura misma del libro, osaré reseñar el trabajo antes citado. A manera de presentación, ¿qué podemos decir y comentar? Desde el punto de vista formal y estructura del trabajo (más allá de la introducción y conclusiones) en sus más de 800 páginas distribuidas en VII capítulos y en dos volúmenes hay un profuso e interesan- tísimo trabajo de fuentes y bibliografía, entre las cuales podemos mencionar la revisión de los procesos judiciales, prensa de la época, memorias, y entrevistas (historia oral) a los protagonistas directos (uniformados y civiles) de los hechos. Pero además de aquello, el trabajo de Magasich Airola nos introduce en la historia más reciente de nuestro país y espe- cíficamente en uno de los episodios olvidados y tergiversados de nuestra historia reciente, como es el caso del movimiento de los marinos antigolpistas de 1973. En ese contexto, durante muchos años, gran parte de la población y en forma especial las nuevas generaciones se fueron formando bajo el alero de lo que algunos denominaron “la historia y memoria oficial de Chile de los últimos años”, donde estos dos componentes, memoria e historia, convergían en un solo pensamiento, el de carácter oficial e institucional.

  • Cae Prats Veinticuatro Horas Antes De La Declaración Del Colegio De
    Cae Prats Veinticuatro horas antes de la declaración del Colegio de Abogados, el martes 7 de agosto en la noche, los militares gol- pistas del alto mando de la Marina, habían decidido poner en marcha la idea de su vicealmirante José Toribio Medina, de presentar el golpe militar que se preparaba como una «res- puesta» a un pretendido «golpe rojo». Los Servicios de Inteli- gencia de la Marina habían detectado una reunión pedida por alrededor de 200 suboficiales y marinería, en Talcahuano, para denunciar que desde el mes de junio, los mandos de los buques de la armada dirigían arengas a la tripulación, en alta mar, di- ciéndoles que <,es necesario sacar de la Moneda al marxista Salvador Allende», «los marinos tenemos el deber patriótico de derrocar el actual Gobierno». Altamirano, junto con Miguel Henríql~ez, secretario general del MIR, y Óscar Garretón, del MAPU, explicaron a los suboficiales y marineros la situación política chilena y el peligro que representaban los oficiales fas- cistas, cuyas actuaciones estaban- al servicio del imperialismo norteamericano y la oligarquía nacional. Plantearon la necesidad de hacer conciencia entre la marinería que «no se debe obede. cer a los oficiales fascistas» si éstos ordenan un alzamiento con- tra el Gobierno. El vicealmirante Merino y sus asesores del Servicio de In- teligencia estimaron que con ello tenían material suficiente para montar un «golpe rojo» en la Armada, y el 7 de agosto anuncia- ron oficialmente que se había descubierto una «subversión» en los buques de guerra «Almirante Latorre» y «Blanco Encalada», dirigida por Altamirano, Henríquez y Garretón.

  • El General Prats Y El Gobierno De La Unidad Popular
    1 El general Prats y el gobierno de la Unidad Popular Mario Amorós• • Trabajo presentado en 1999 en la Universidad de Barcelona para los cursos de Doctorado de Historia de América. 2 1. INTRODUCCIÓN. He escogido este tema por mi interés por la historia más reciente de Chile, sobre todo por el periodo de la Unidad Popular. Fue un periodo excepcional de la historia contemporánea ya que, por primera vez, se intentó construir el socialismo “en democracia, pluralismo y libertad”, según acostumbraba a afirmar el Presidente Allende. Además, en aquellos mil días las Fuerzas Armadas jugaron un papel determinante. Dirigidas por Carlos Prats hasta agosto de 1973, fueron decisivas para evitar que triunfaran varios intentos de golpes de estado. Sin embargo, la llegada de Pinochet a la jefatura del Ejército cambió la correlación de fuerzas en el seno de las Fuerzas Armadas y la sublevación del 11 de septiembre triunfó sin apenas oposición. En este trabajo intento aproximarme al papel que este general jugó durante los tres años de gobierno de Salvador Allende. Con una trayectoria profesional impecable, a Prats le correspondió dirigir las Fuerzas Armadas chilenas entre octubre de 1970 y agosto de 1973. Como su antecesor, el general René Schneider, Carlos Prats fue asesinado (el 30 de septiembre de 1974 en Buenos Aires, junto a su esposa Sofía Cuthbert) por ser leal a su juramento de fidelidad a la Constitución de 1925. La principal fuente de mi trabajo ha sido la excelente autobiografía de Prats, quien a lo largo de 610 páginas relata con detalle los principales acontecimientos de su vida, con especial atención a la etapa en que fue comandante en jefe del 3 Ejército, que coincidió, como ya he dicho, con el gobierno de Salvador Allende.
