The article discusses international politics. Jesus De Galindez, Basque scholar and lecturer at Columbia University, New York, foe of dictators, vanished the night of March 12, 1956, posing for American authorities one of the most haunting mysteries of its time, a riddle pervaded by the cloak-and- dagger aura of international intrigue. Galindez created a sensation while performing one of the most commonplace of acts. He walked into a New York subway kiosk and disappeared without a trace. He left behind him the elements of international controversy and the literary work of a lifetime, entitled "The era of Trujillo."
