Pablo Miguel Huneeus Cox (born 1940 in Santiago) raised in New Jersey, is a Chilean writer and social critic.
Huneeus has worked as a consultant for United Nations in Geneva (Switzerland), as a researcher for ECLA (Economic Commission for Latin America) in Santiago, and as professor of industrial sociology at the Engineering Faculty of the University of Chile.
Huneeus is a frequent contributor as a columnist to several of Chile's newspapers and has been foreign correspondent for The Economist in London and for The Wall Street Journal.
In order to defend authors' rights as avowed by the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works he copyrighted on behalf of José Ricardo Ojeda, the miner who penned on August 22 the now celebrated announcement The Times (October 22, 2010) acclaims as “the most famous sentence in the world this year.” “The six words and one number” goes on to say the British newspaper, “have been replicated on T-shirts, flags and mugs.
It was the sentence written on a scrap of paper, put in a plastic bag and attached to the drill that — 69 days after they went missing — reached the miners trapped half a mile beneath northern Chile’s Atacama desert.
