Enzo Faletto (July 14, 1935 – June 22, 2003) was a Chilean sociologist and historian. Together with former Brazilian president and sociologist Fernando Henrique Cardoso, he wrote the book Dependency and Development in Latin America, an important contribution to the development of Dependency Theory.

Biography

Early years and education

Born in the Chilean capital, Santiago, Enzo would like to join the Foreign Legion. Frustrated with his chances of joining, at the age of 14 he entered the Arturo Prat Naval School [es], a branch of the Chilean Navy, located in Valparaíso. He was expelled from the corps for bad behavior and returned to Santiago to work in his father's armory.

He entered the History course at the University of Chile at the age of 20, where he graduated in 1957. After graduating in History, he moved to the Sociology department at Latin American Faculty of Social Sciences (FLACSO) to do her master's degree.

Career

In 1961, he joined the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC). With the establishment of the Brazilian military dictatorship in 1964, intellectuals such as Fernando Henrique Cardoso, Francisco Weffort and Vilmar Faria went into exile in Chile, where Enzo began working with the Brazilians.

With Cardoso, he wrote the book Dependencia y desarrollo en Ameìrica Latina, initially published by the Mexican publishing house Siglo XXI in 1969. The book was first published in Brazil by Zahar [pt] in Rio de Janeiro in 1970 under the title Dependência e Desenvolvimento na América Latina. A decade after its release in Mexico, the book was published in the United States by the University of California Press under the title Dependency and development in Latin America.

Between 1967 and 1972 he taught sociology and journalism students at the University of Chile. With the military coup in Chile in 1973, he was relieved of his duties as a university professor. During the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet, he worked as a researcher at FLACSO. It wasn't until the country's re-democratization in 1991 that he was reinstated as a professor at the University of Chile. With a left-wing orientation, he was affiliated until the end of his life to the Socialist Party of Chile.

For his academic achievements, he received the title of honorary professor at the University of Chile, as well as the Valentin Letelier medal, also awarded by the university. In Argentina, he was awarded an honorary doctorate by the National University of Rosario.
