Una memoria, un testimonio: Alfredo Pareja Diezcanseco, el mecenas (Testimonios)

El texto es un testimonio de dimensiones poco abordadas de Alfredo Pareja: el lado humano del diplomático, del docente en el extranjero, de integrante del Grupo de Guayaquil. Principalmente reseña el nacimiento de un espacio clave de recuperación de la memoria: el Archivo Histórico y la biblioteca especializada del Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores del Ecuador. Durante tres años, desde 1981, se trabajó en una pequeña oficina, elaborando fichas a partir de manuscritos, pergaminos y demás documentos que allí reposaban, Pareja veía necesario este rescate para la construcción de la historia del país. A partir de ésta y de otras fuentes -coloniales y del siglo XIX, hasta entonces desconocidas o interpretadas de diferente modo por los territorialistas ecuatorianos-, Pareja planteó una nueva interpretación del conflicto limítrofe con Perú, y sostuvo la necesidad de un acuerdo de paz, ello implicaba la aceptación del Protocolo de Río de Janeiro, situación que despertó en su contra muchos comentarios enconados, pero que formó parte de la tesis que prevaleció. El Archivo Histórico «Alfredo Pareja Diezcanseco» se inauguró en julio de 1996.
