Carlos Domingo Cuadra Cuadra

Carlos Domingo Cuadra Cuadra is a Nicaraguan politician and publicist.

His parents were Carlos Cuadra Cardenal (from a family tracing their lineage to King James I of Aragon) and Olga Cuadra Sandino.[1]

In the 1980s, Cuadra Cuadra was a member of the Executive Secretariat of the Marxist–Leninist Popular Action Movement (MAP-ML) and served as the director of the newspaper El Pueblo.[2][3] In early 1980 was sentenced to two years of prison labour for statements expressed in El Pueblo, deemed counter-revolutionary by the new government.[4] Cuadra Cuadra and other personalities sentenced in the same penal case appealed the ruling, and the sentence was revised to three months prison labour.[5] He became editor-in-chief of Prensa Proletaria in 1982.[6]

Cuadra Cuadra represented the MAP-ML in the National Assembly 1984-1990.[7] [8][9][10] As a member of parliament, he opposed the 1987 Constitution of Nicaragua draft, labeling it 'bourgeois'.[11][12]

Cuadra Cuadra was the vice-presidential candidate of MAP-ML in the Nicaraguan general election, 1990.[13] The ticket got 8,115 votes nationwide.[14]

Cuadra Cuadra later left politics, and became director in advertising.[15][16][17]
