Enrique Orozimbo Barbosa Baeza (30 September 1882 – 9 August 1976) was a Chilean politician who served as a minister.[1]
Barbosa was a member of the Club de la Unión and the Chilean Olympic Committee, serving as president of the latter from 1934 to 1935.[1]
He was also a member of the International Olympic Committee from 1948 to 1952 and an honorary member of the Academy of Legislation and Jurisprudence in Madrid.[1]
Early life and career
He was the son of Orozimbo Barbosa and Corina Baeza Yávar.[1] Following the defeat of the supporters of President José Manuel Balmaceda in the Chilean Civil War of 1891, his family went into exile in Argentina, where they settled after his father, an Army general, faced political persecution.[2] In Buenos Aires, he married Magdalena Popolizio Garofano in 1907.[1]
He studied humanities at the Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires, where he received academic distinctions. He returned to Chile in 1908 and studied law at the University of Chile. His thesis, entitled Divorcio con Disolución de Vínculo ("Divorce with Dissolution of the Marriage Bond"), dealt with divorce law. As a lawyer, he specialized in criminal cases.[2]
He was subsequently appointed an examiner in forensic medicine at the Faculty of Law and Political Sciences of the University of Chile.[2]
Political career
Influenced by his father, he joined the Liberal Democratic Party, eventually becoming one of its leading members. He founded a propaganda organization for the Liberal Democratic Youth and was elected its president. Similar organizations were subsequently established in other Chilean cities.[2]
He joined the staff of the Chamber of Deputies of Chile after a competitive appointment and in 1911 became a reporter of its parliamentary proceedings.[3]
He was elected to the Chamber of Deputies for Linares for the 1912–1915 legislative term, for Tarapacá and Pisagua for the 1915–1918 term, and for Ovalle for the 1924–1926 term.[3] During his parliamentary career, he served on the standing committees on Social Legislation and Finance and was elected Second Vice President of the Chamber of Deputies in 1924.[3]
He was a member of the consultative commission established to consider the proposed Constitution of 1925, although he did not participate in its drafting as a constituent.[1] In 1926, he joined the Alliance Liberal Democratic Party, serving for a time as its president.[1]
Minister of state
In 1956, he served as Minister of Foreign Affairs during the second government of President Carlos Ibáñez del Campo. That same year, he joined the Republican Movement.[1]
