    (1931-) Escultor, Premio Nobel de la Paz 1980 Adolfo Pérez Esquivel nació en Buenos Aires, Argentina, en 1931. Completó su educación universitaria en la Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes y en la Universidad Nacional de La Plata. Luego enseñó durante 25 años en los niveles primario, secundario y universitario. Como artista plástico ha producido intensamente en diversos medios y ha exhibido internacionalmente. En los 60's Adolfo Perez Esquivel comenzó a trabajar con organizaciones populares involucradas en el movimiento pacifista cristiano de Latinoamérica. En 1974 fue elegido coordinador general para América Latina en grupos de base que promovían la liberación del continente por medios no-violentos. Cuando los responsables del golpe militar de 1976 en Argentina comenzaron una política de represión sistemática, él contribuyó a la formación y el afianzamiento de los lazos entre organizaciones populares que defendían los derechos humanos y apoyaban a las familias de las víctimas. El Servicio de Paz y Justicia que fundó evolucionó en este contexto, y sirvió como instrumento para la defensa de los derechos humanos a través de la promoción de una campaña internacional que denunció las atrocidades cometidas por el régimen militar. En 1975, Adolfo Perez Esquivel fue detenido por la policía militar brasileña; luego fue encarcelado en 1976, junto con obispos latinoamericanos y norteamericanos en Ecuador, y también en 1977, en Buenos Aires, en los cuarteles de la Policía Federal, donde fue torturado, retenido sin proceso y liberado recién 14 meses después. En prisión recibió -entre otras distinciones- el Memorial de Paz Juan XXIII.

    Appello del premio Nobel Adolfo Perez Esquivel
    di Adolfo Perez Esquivel (premio Nobel per la pace)
    07 febbraio 2003 Al Forum Sociale Mondiale 2003, le organizzazioni partecipanti hanno lanciato una giornata mondiale per la Pace e contro la guerra che gli Stati Uniti, la Gran Bretagna, i governi complici e l'industria militare preparano contro l'Iraq per impadronirsi della regione e delle sue risorse petrolifere, affermando la propria politica egemonica di dominio mondiale. La proposta è di realizzare in tutti i Paesi manifestazioni, marce e riflessioni per reclamare l'immediata cessazione dei preparativi bellici. Un altro mondo è possibile, se partecipiamo e se abbiamo il coraggio di organizzarci per opporci alla Guerra e costruire la Pace. Dobbiamo chiedere all'ONU che adotti decisioni concrete per evitare di trascinare i popoli in un nuovo conflitto dalle conseguenze imprevedibili, che mette a rischio la vita di milioni di persone e di tutta l'umanità. Questo organismo internazionale deve agire con coraggio per evitare la guerra.

    Nobel Winners: Give Iraq a Break By Waiel Faleh Associated Press Writer March 9, 1999 BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) Two Nobel peace laureates urged President Clinton and British Prime Minister Tony Blair on Tuesday to end the bombing of Iraq and to allow U.N. sanctions to be lifted. The plea was made by Mairead Corrigan Maguire of Ireland and Adolfo Perez-Esquivel of Argentina, who both arrived in Iraq on Sunday as part of a New York-based international peace activist group, Fellowship Of Reconciliation. The activists visited schools and hospitals, including a cancer ward, to see the effects of the economic sanctions imposed in 1990 to punish Iraq for invading Kuwait. The United States and Britain oppose lifting the sanctions, saying Iraqi President Saddam Hussein's government remains a threat to his neighbors and to his own people. Iraq says the sanctions have killed tens of thousands of children by creating shortages of medicines and nutritious food. "This is genocide. Children are dying slowly and painfully," said Perez-Esquivel, who opposed a military dictatorship in his native Argentina, and won the Nobel Prize in 1980. Maguire, who shared the 1976 Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to end the violence in Northern Ireland, has long campaigned against using military force against Iraq. "I have seen children dying with their mothers next to them and not being able to do anything," Maguire said. "They are not soldiers."

Although we were a bit nervous about meeting him since he is such a historical figure and so famous, we were immediately put at ease by his friendliness and the enthusiasm with which he greeted us. So how do you get to be a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate? Adolfo has led a long and difficult life, but one in which he has never lost hope that people can make a better world by standing up for what they believe in non-violently. Click image for larger view Adolfo was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1931. He studied fine arts in college, and then he then taught for 25 years at the primary, secondary and university levels. As a plastic artist, he has produced intensely in various mediums and has exhibited internationally. In the 1960's, Adolfo began to devote more of his time to creating change in the world, and he began working with Christian organizations promoting non-violent protest throughout Latin America. In 1974, he was elected the general coordinator of many of these organizations. Like many other countries in Latin America, Argentina has a past which has been marked by revolutions, military dictatorships, and terrorism.

    In Buenos Aires, the most popular proposal for a peace event Saturday has been to stage a march from Plaza Italia in the Palermo district to the U.S. Embassy, located 600 meters away. But other events, including ceremonies for reflection and calls for peace, also are being scheduled.
    According to a recent Gallup poll conducted in 41 countries, Argentina has the highest anti-war sentiment, with 83 percent of respondents opposed to an attack on Iraq. Four percent said they would support a U.N.-supported military offensive against Iraq and only 3 percent supported a unilateral attack by the United States.
    Argentina was ranked second in the poll after Switzerland in the portion of respondents who said they would oppose their government supporting military action against Iraq.

    PEREZ ESQUIVEL FIGHTS FOR HUMAN RIGHTS
    1980 NOBEL PRIZE WINNER PRESSES NON-VIOLENT PROTEST
    Author: By Stephen Kinzer Globe Correspondent Date: Sunday, October 18, 1981 Page: Section: FOCUS In a spartan office behind a dingy and unmarked door sits the winner of the 1980 Nobel Peace Prize. Two of the larger holes in the wall behind him are covered by posters of Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King. Above all, Adolfo Perez Esquivel is an activist, an advocate who seeks, in his own words, "to be a voice for those who have no voice." But he is also one of the world's leading theorists of non-violence, which he believes is the most effective tactic in his struggle against injustice in Latin America. "Non-violence is the way to resist evil and oppression," he said in a recent interview. "We do not respond to violence with more violence, but rather we seek to change the mechanisms by which society is governed. "Our first step is always to make people aware that they are human beings and deserving of dignity. Non-violence is an act of resistance through which we seek to create a new society where the power relationships are different than they are today."
