An admirable person.

If exist someone that I admire so much in my field is Gabriel Salazar, who is my teacher of Social History of Chile.
He is a eminent historian of the Chilean's history. He is a founder of the historiographics trends called  New 
Social History, that it's based in the construction of history from the social actors that compose it.
He is, also, sociologyst and philosopher. 
He was born in 1936, in Chile, and studied his secundary education in the "Liceo de Aplicación". His superiors studies, carried out in the "Universidad deChile", were firts history in 1960, and after sociology and philosophy parallely.  
In 1970, Salazar joined to "MIR" (Movement of Revolutionary Left), and during the Dictadure, he was taken prisioner. 
In 2006, he won the Nacional Prize of History of Chile.
During his life he has wrotte a lot book like "farmworker, laborer, and proletarian", " In the name of the Popular Power Constituent"

He like me, because his way of to see the history is very interesting, that is a vision almost opposite to the history that teach on the schools. Is a  much more dinamic history, explaining the causes of  events, not just the event facts .

He is Gabriel Salazar
