Abstract:

The Salvadoran people, it is believed, voted in 1982 to end the war. Despite two more years of seemingly stalemated war, economic disruption, and stagnation, their participation in the elections this year testifies to their patient willingness to pursue peace and change through legal, democratic channels.
