Leon Zeldis
Leon Zeldis is a Chilean-Israeli academic and Freemason who has contributed significantly to the understanding of Freemasonry's historical context in South America. His research focuses on the role of Freemasonry in the independence movements of Latin America, particularly highlighting the documented affiliations of key figures like Simón Bolívar. Zeldis asserts that while Bolívar's Masonic credentials are established, the influence of Freemasonry on his political actions and writings may have been minimal, challenging common narratives that overstate its significance in the independence movements.
