    Extractions: El Salvador, which is Spanish for "the saviour" - or Jesus Christ - has been wracked by civil war and a succession of natural disasters which have left it physically devastated and psychologically traumatised. A tiny country, El Salvador is both the most densely populated state on the mainland of the Americas and the most industrialised in Central America. However, social inequality and the fact that the country lies within a seismic zone define much of contemporary El Salvador. OVERVIEW FACTS LEADERS MEDIA During the 1980s, El Salvador was ravaged by a bitter civil war. This was the result of gross inequality between a small and wealthy elite, which dominated the government and the economy, and the overwhelming majority of the population, many of whom lived - and continue to live - in abject squalor. The war left around 70,000 people dead and caused damage worth 2 billion dollars, but it also precipitated important political reforms. In 1992 a United Nations-brokered peace agreement ended the civil war, but no sooner had El Salvador begun to recover when it was hit by a series of natural disasters. The most notable of these was Hurricane Mitch in 1998, and a number of earthquakes in 2001. These left at least 1,200 people dead and more than a million others homeless.

    Extractions: El Salvador is a democratic republic governed by a president and an 84-member unicameral Legislative Assembly. The president is elected by universal suffrage and serves for a 5-year term by absolute majority vote. A second round runoff is required in the event that no candidate receives more than 50% of the first round vote. Members of the assembly, also elected by universal suffrage, serve for 3-year terms. The country has an independent judiciary and Supreme Court. Roberto D’Aubuisson and other hard-line conservatives, including some members of the military, created the Nationalist Republican Alliance party (ARENA) in 1981. D’Aubuisson's electoral fortunes were diminished by credible reports that he was involved in organized political violence. ARENA almost won the election in 1984, with solid private sector and rural farmer support. By 1989, ARENA had attracted the support of business groups. Allegations of corruption by the ruling Christian Democratic party, poor relations with the private sector, and historically low prices for the nation’s main agricultural exports also contributed to ARENA victories in the 1988 legislative and 1989 presidential elections. The 1989-94 Cristiani administration's successes in achieving a peace agreement to end the civil war and in improving the nation's economy helped ARENAled by former San Salvador mayor Armando Calderon Solkeep both the presidency and a working majority in the Legislative Assembly in the 1994 elections. ARENA's legislative position was weakened in the 1997 elections, but it recovered its strength, helped by divisions in the opposition, in time for another victory in the 1999 presidential race that brought President Flores to office. A presidential election is scheduled for March 2004.

    Extractions: Bahasa Indonesia Nederlands English Español Português Highlights: Current story: History Created: 12 July 1998, Updated: November 1999 The Spaniards conquered what would become El Salvador in the 16 th century. They developed plantations of cotton, balsam and indigo. The European elite, consisting of 14 families, controlled almost all the land, and they enslaved the native Indians. El Salvador obtained independence in 1821, but the same wealthy elite maintained its domination of the land. There were various attempts in the early part of the 20 th century by the poor majority to redress the social and economic injustices, but they were repressed by the government. In 1932, Augustín Farabundo Martí, one of the founding fathers of the Central American socialist party, led a revolt by peasants and Indians. In response, the Salvadorian army murdered anyone who looked Indian or who supported the uprising. 30,000 people were killed during la Matanza , the Massacre.

Over 1000 observers were in the country.] As the results of the March 21st presidential election in El Salvador became evident, and the rightwing ARENA party celebrated its victory, one question loomed large: what would these elections have looked like without the " U.S. factor"? Would the FMLN candidate, Schafik Handal now be president of El Salvador if the real issues facing the people of that country had been the determining factors? U.S. State Department intervention in the Salvadoran campaign started in June of last year and escalated in February when Assistant Secretary of State Roger Noriega went to El Salvador to denounce the leftist FMLN party and call on people to vote for someone who "shares our [

    Extractions: In 1985, D'Aubuisson stepped down as party president in an apparent effort to moderate the party's image. His replacement, Alfredo Cristiani, was a wealthy coffee grower who had been considered D'Aubuisson's protégé. D'Aubuisson was named ARENA's "president for life" and he continued to weild much influence within the party until his death. With the declining popularity of the Christian Democrats and the improved image of ARENA cultivated by Cristiani, the U.S., which had once seen an ARENA presidential victory as a catastrophe, came to accept the new ARENA government which took power in 1989. Although the Cristiani administration initially indicated some openness to a negotiated end to the war, a spate of human rights abuses by the military and rightists, along with provocations from the FMLN, from September to November of 1989 signaled that the war was far from over.

    Extractions: El Salvador has a long history of violence committed by groups that are neither part of the Government nor ordinary criminals. For decades, it has been a fragmented society with a weak system of justice and a tradition of impunity for officials and members of the most powerful families who commit abuses. … Violence has formed part of the exercise of official authority, directly guided by State officials. This has been reflected, throughout the country's history, in a pattern of conduct by the government and power elites of using violence as a means to control civilian society. In the past 150 years, a number of uprisings by peasants and indigenous groups have been violently suppressed by the State and by civilian groups armed by landowners. There were several stages in the process of formation of the death squads in this century. The National Guard was created and organized in 1910 and the following years. From its inception, members cooperated actively with large landowners, at times going so far as to crack down brutally on the peasant leagues and other rural groups that threatened their interests.

    Extractions: By Stephen Johnson P But division did pretty well in El Salvador, which held its presidential election last Sunday. National Republican Alliance (ARENA) candidate Tony Saca won, not so much because his right-wing party had moved toward the center following El Salvador's civil conflict in the 1980s, but because opponent Schafik Handal of the Farabundo Martí Liberation Front (FMLN) took his campaign back to his party's roots on the hard Left. Handal promised a retreat from a new free-trade pact with the United States and a realignment with Cuba while Saca innocuously offered to bolster public security, improve tax collection, and modernize the public-health system. But Saca also spoke to fears that his rival would govern as a populist autocrat and reverse many of El Salvador's free-market gains since the government and the guerrillas signed a peace accord in 1992. A record 65-percent participation rate suggests that many citizens responded to that message. ARENA won every "department" (El Salvador's equivalent of a state) and nearly every municipality.

    Extractions: I. HUMAN RIGHTS DEFENDERS IN CENTRAL AMERICA El Salvador "To threaten those who are part of civil organizations in society and human rights activists, who care about the problems of those in most need for justice in this country, shows nothing but a blindness of conscience, which does not allow them to see how much we need in this country the respect for human rights, as a foundation for the rule of law and peace." Oficina de Tutela Legal del Arzobispado, 28 June 1996 A fierce civil war raged in El Salvador during the 1980s and early 1990s between government forces and the armed opposition Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN). People from all sectors of society suspected of opposing the government became victims of human rights violations, including arbitrary arrest, torture, "disappearance" and extrajudicial executions. Human rights defenders paid a high price for their legitimate activities exposing government abuse during the war. Moreover, those responsible for these violations have not been punished for their hideous crimes. The killing of Archbishop Romero was investigated by the Commission on the Truth for El Salvador (Truth Commission), established under the 1992 Peace Agreements between the Government of El Salvador and the FMLN. In its 1993 report the Commission concluded that:

    Extractions: June 2, 2004 On Tuesday, June 1,Tony Saca was sworn in as the new president of El Salvador. In what sounded like a joke that went from bad to worse, Saca – former president of the National Association of Private Business (ANEP) – gave a speech applauding economic policies like CAFTA while throwing around the jargon of "human development," "social responsibility", "liberty" and "justice." All of the pomp and circumstance of the inauguration was made possible due to a giant militarized zone that prevented any protestors from getting close enough to deface the carefully crafted image of Saca as a populist president.

    Extractions: Military government have been in power most of the time since 1931, often responding to political unrest with violent repression. Political violence increased sharply after the 1977 election in which General Carlos H. Romero became president. He was deposed in October 1979, but the military-civilian junta that replaced him was unable to stop the civil war between leftists and rightist. As a concession to the left, the junta proposed a limited land reform that affected about 25% of the land. At the same time, the junta, which was closeley linked to the right through the army, did little to control the rightist paramilitary National Guard. As a result, archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero, associated with the left, was assassinated in 1980 by the rightist. Under pressure from the U.S. to institute economic and human rights reform, the junta named Jose Napoleon Duarte, leader of the moderate Christian Democratic party, as president in December 1980. Although a small land-reform program was begun, fighting continued, as did rightist executions of farmers, peasents, and workers. The U.S. charging that the two main leftist groups, the Farabundo Marti National Liberation (FMLN) and the Revolutionary Democracy Front (FDR), were being helped by Nicaragua, Cuba, and the Soviet Union, increased its military and economic aid to the Salvadorian government (rightist) which were responsible for torturing and killing inocent people. In a 1982 election boycotted by the
