Arnoldo Ferreto Segura y el Partido Comunista de Costa Rica en la lucha por la egunda y auténtica independencia nacional

Abstract

This paper aims to present some of the moments of one of the most notable leaders of the Costa Rican Comunist Party/Popular Vanguard Party during period of 1931-76. We refer to Professor Arnoldo Ferreto Segura. Obviously, one can not make a capricious separation of the leader's experiences with the very actions of the party apparatus as there is a dialectical relationship both in form and substance. Step by step, the leader Arnoldo Ferreto Segura takes us on the path that would mark the political line, both tactically and strategically, of the party in mention. In synthesis, this presents elements of a historical nature of a political figure that the Official History according to its own logic has kept hidden from the national political scene.
