Comment: As mentioned in my comments, some of the sources are inaccesible. This draft is a translation from the spanish-language original, but the references and citations were not checked in the translation process. It is fine to translate an article but each and every reference and footnote needs to be checked, they cannot simply be copied. Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 02:14, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Hi Lea19649800, your article on Eduardo Luis Duhalde is very interesting. I thought it was not ready to be accepted just yet because there were some issues about references, translation and wikification. Regarding inline citations, please check each and every one of them. Some are not working. Regarding wikification, please see WP:MOS/Bio especially for the first phrase and the lead section. Regarding translation issues, I edited the phrase "the then-current dictatorships or the presidents who sustained Justicialist prohibitions" because that is not good english. The topic is difficult enough to understand for people who do not know the context. Please check my version to see if I understood it correctly and clarified the issue. I made a couple of other minor copy-edits. Please also check the infobox because I am not certain that Predecessor and Sucessor refer to Duhalde´s term as Secretary for Human Rights. If some of my edits are erroneous, please correct them. And most importantly, check all the references and inline citations. All links must be working. I´ll check back in a day or two to see if the article can be accepted. Best regards, Ruud Buitelaar (talk) 02:56, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Biography
[edit]
Early Life
[edit]Eduardo Luis Duhalde was born in October of 1939. At 16, he entered the Faculty of Law at the University of Buenos Aires (UBA).
Career and Exile
[edit]At the beginning of the 1960s, Duhalde and Rodolfo Ortega Peña took on the legal defense of political militants from the Peronist and other parties, especially those who were imprisoned for confronting the dictatorships of Aramburu and Frondizi during which the Justicialist Party was barred from participating in elections.
In 1972, he was a lawyer for the high-level populist militants who participated in the escape from Rawson Prison. There is controversy regarding his connection to Cuba as it relates to these militants; some say he did not go to Cuba until his exile 1976, but some say that he had previously been in Cuba receiving the Argentine militants who fled from Rawson Prison.[2]
From 1973 to 1974, Ortega Peña and Duhalde directed the magazine Militancia Peronista para la liberación (Peronist Militancy for Liberation), also known simply as Militancia.[3] In June of 1974 the magazine was shut down by the decree of president Juan Perón, and the two men went back to editing another similar magazine by the name of De Frente (Up Front), which would also shortly be shut down, this time by president Isabel Perón.[4] In this magazine, they assumed the defense of militants from organizations of both Peronist (Peronist Armed Forces [FAP] and the Montoneros) and non-Peronist extraction (People's Revolutionary Army [ERP] and the Revolutionary Armed Forces [FAR]). The publication continued until the assassination of Ortega Peña, who was by that time a congressman, by the infamous Argentine Anticommunist Alliance (AAA) on July 31st, 1974.[5] After Ortega Peña's murder, Duhalde dedicated himself to building the Argentine Revolutionary Workers' Party (PROA), and lived in hiding with his whole family for two years.
In 1976, the Argentinian military dictatorship ordered the capture and seizure of Duhalde's assets, prompting Duhalde to go into exile in Spain. Shortly before leaving, he and several other lawyers organized the Argentine Human Rights Commission (CADHU) to denounce the state terrorism of Argentina. From Spain, he dedicated his time to globally denouncing the actions of the Junta Cívico Militar and promoting action against the dictatorial regime.
Return to Argentina and later career
[edit]Duhalde returned to Argentina in 1984, where he founded the Institute of International Relations (IRI) and the editorial Contrapunto (Counterpoint). At that newspaper, he edited more than 60 titles on recent Argentine history, such as Ezeiza by Horace Verbitsky and The Night of the Pencils by María Seoane. He also directed the newspaper Sur (South) from the late 1980s until 1990.
In the 1990s, he served as the Chamber Judge of the Federal Capital Oral Criminal Courts, as a United Nations human rights consultant, and as a consulting professor on the Social Sciences faculty at the University of Buenos Aires. He was also an honorary professor of law, history, and politics at several universities both in Argentina and abroad; and was a member of several Argentine, Latin American, and European academic institutions, as well as national and international human rights organizations.[6] Duhalde also wrote books on Argentine history and directed the newspaper editorial Sudestada, publishing many works on historical revisionism. Additionally he took part in various peace missions in Africa and in Latin America, specifically to the conflict zones of El Salvador, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, and Colombia. [7][8]
He received the International Prize in Journalism awarded by the Pro-Human Rights Association of Spain in 1990 for his fight in defense of fundamental human rights.[6]
Duhalde also served as the Chamber Judge of the Oral Criminal Courts of Buenos Aires until 2003, when he was appointed Secretary for Human Rights in the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights during the presidency of Néstor Kirchner. He continued in the same role during the presidency of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner until his death on April 3rd, 2012.
