- Description
- Vinicio Cerezo, center, politician from the Democracia Cristiana Guatemalteca, Guatemalan Christian Democracy, DCG, speaks with a colleague following the presidential elections in Guatemala City, Guatemala, March 7, 1982. Cerezo would later serve as president from 1986 to 1991. He was the first democratically-elected civilian president of Guatemala in 20 years. Cerezo signed several initiatives during his presidency including the Central American Peace Accords, in which the heads of state of the Central American countries agreed on an economic and political framework to resolve conflict in the region. This laid the foundation for the 1996 UN-brokered "Accord for a Firm and Lasting Peace" that formally ended over three decades of conflict in Guatemala.

- Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa, left, interviews Salvadoran President Álvaro Magaña, right, at the Presidential Palace in San Salvador, El Salvador, May 10, 1984. Vargas Llosa was reporting on the 1984 Salvadoran presidential elections for Time magazine. Magaña's provisional government, installed in 1982, transferred presidential power from the Junta Revolucionaria de Gobierno, JRG, to a civilian for the first time since the Junta took power in a military coup in 1979. However, Magaña remained heavily influenced by members of the military high command in key policy decisions, which rendered accountability for state crimes and agrarian reform stagnant issues during his presidency.

- Description
- Pedestrians walk past a presidential election poster for the right-wing political party Alianza Republicana Nacionalista, National Republican Alliance, ARENA, on their way home from work in the Mejicanos neighborhood of San Salvador, El Salvador, May 1, 1984. ARENA was founded in 1981 from a convergence of the landowning oligarchy and the extreme anti-communist right. The party received formative support from Guatemala's fascist ultra-right political party Movimiento de Liberación Nacional, National Liberation Movement, MLN, and from several influential members of the Republican party of the United States. Roberto D'Aubuisson, founding member of ARENA and the presidential candidate for the party in the 1984 elections, was known to have close ties to the death squads and had a reputation for extreme violence.

ARENA was established in 1981 and was primarily supported by right-wing extremists and members of the country’s economic elite. D’Aubuisson’s connection with the death squads made him a controversial figure in United States-Salvadoran relations during the war. He did, however, receive support from influential U.S. Republicans looking to safeguard economic interests, proving no coincidence in the party name Alianza Republicana Nacionalista (National Republican Alliance).
