Two personalities, one Bolivian and the other Spanish, died in March 2020. The first, Reynaldo Peters Azabe, politician, Minister of State and lawyer, rose to international fame for having written a Habeas Corpus on toilet paper, which was the only writing material he found in his cell as a political prisoner at the time of the dictatorship by Gral. Hugo Bánzer. This masterpiece of constitutional law was registered as Memory of the World. For her part, Emilia Currás, a Spanish chemist, documen-talist and informatologist, contributed her theory of informationism in Archives, ahead of time, in the application of computer systems in document management.
