Gabriel Salazar

He was born in the city of Santiago in January 31st, 1936. He is a nationally prominent historian and although not precisely an anthropologist I believe that his research and books are a lot of help to our discipline.

Gabriel Salazar studied in the "Liceo de Aplicación" and went to the University of Chile for further studies of History, Philosophy and Sociology. In 1976 he was exiled from the country and was received in England, this country gave him a scolarship and he became Doctor in Economics and Social History in the Hull University. In 2006 won the National Prize for History in Chile.


Nowadays Salazar works as professor of 19th century Chilean History, Contemorary and Theory of History in the department of History Science in the University of Chile, and teaches the course of Social History in Chile in the law school, as well as in the Faculty of Social Science at the same university.


Salazar is a major contribution to chilean historiography, and he established the trend of New Social History that examines the popular subjects and the most significant facts in the lower classes, focusing on the displaced and the exploited masses of our society.
