Founding member and party leader Roberto D’Aubuisson was known to have close ties to the death squads and had a reputation for extreme violence.

- Description
- Salvadoran politician and presidential candidate José Napoleón Duarte (1925 - 1990) speaks at a campaign rally in San Salvador, El Salvador, December 19, 1983. Duarte of the Partido Demócrata Cristiano, Christian Democratic Party, PDC, won the election after a run-off that ended on May 12, 1984. The PDC victory can be largely attributed to the more than $3 million in aid provided by the C.I.A. and the United States government to finance the elections in an effort to produce a moderate reformist government compliant with Washington’s interests.

- Description
- Salvadoran politician and presidential candidate José Napoleón Duarte (1925 - 1990) speaks at a campaign rally in San Salvador, El Salvador, December 19, 1983. In the 1984 presidential elections the U.S. initially supported candidate Francisco Guerrero from the Partido de Concertación Nacional, National Coalition Party, PCN, who was considered acceptably moderate to both the private sector and the army. After Guerrero lost the primary election in March of 1984, Washington threw their support behind Duarte to blunt the appeal of far-right candidate Roberto D’Aubuisson and his party Alianza Republicana Nacionalista, National Republican Alliance, ARENA.

- Description
- Roberto D'Aubuisson, founder of right-wing conservative party Alianza Republicana Nacionalista, National Republican Alliance, ARENA, addresses a crowd during a presidential campaign rally in San Salvador, El Salvador, March 1, 1984. 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).

- Description
- 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.
