Abstract

The article discusses the death of journalist Ridkard Kapuscinski in Ecuador. The author presents several interviews with students of the former journalist, including the Peruvian writer Julio Villanueva Chang who was a former pupil of Kapuscinski. Born into a poor Polish family in the 1930s, Kapuscinski had a passion for reporting on the common, marginalised peoples. In his eyes, journalism was not just a profession but rather a social mission. He states that working under the socialist regime in Poland was difficult due to the various measures imposed by the government to censure journalists.
