Biography

Born in

Miguel Juárez Celman

"This affiliation is nothing more than the renunciation of civic life by the young, in favor of absorption into a superior will that converts them into the mere instruments of the Executive".

The article precipitated a historic political movement that led first to the creation of the

Civic Youth Union, of which Barroetaveña was president, then to the creation of the Civic Union in 1890, then to the Revolution of the Park, and in 1891 to the creation of the Radical Civic Union
, of which he was a founding member and national deputy on various occasions.

Within the Radical Civic Union he was allied with

Marcelo T. de Alvear, and tenaciously opposed to Hipólito Yrigoyen
.

He left the Radical Civic Union and joined the Democratic Progressive Party. In 1932 he ran for the presidency on behalf of the PDP-PS alliance.[2]

Barroetaveña was an active Freemason and a prominent figure in Argentine Freemasonry.[3]
