CORTINA ORERO, Eudald. Adriana Haidar Health Brigade: Montonera Technical Solidarity with the Sandinista Revolution. Secuencia [online]. 2020, n.108, e1832.  Epub 17-Feb-2021. ISSN 2395-8464.  https://doi.org/10.18234/secuencia.v0i108.1832.

The sandinista revolution received the solidarity of various internationalist contingents that supported the insurrectionary effort of the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) and participated in the consolidation of the revolutionary project and the reconstruction of Nicaragua. This article studies the unprecedented case of the Adriana Haidar Health Brigade, a structure created in Mexico by the Montonero Peronist Movement (MPM). We explore this experience by focusing on four aspects. First, we trace the transnational networks created by Montoneros between 1974 and 1979. Second, we identify the effective contributions of the contingent, and the solidarity projections of this experience. Third, we analyze the impact in personal and militant terms on members of the Brigade. And lastly, we frame these internationalist experiences within the organizational dynamics of Montoneros in this period, marked by the so-called Strategic Counteroffensive, designed to achieve the phased return of Montonero militants to Argentina to combat the military dictatorship.
