Democracy after Pinochet Politics Parties and Elections in Chile by Alan Angell
Brand: Institute for Latin American Studies
Product Description
This book explores how democracy has developed in Chile since the end of the military dictatorship in 1990. It brings together an examination of international influences on the countrys political development with empirically based analyses of Chilean political institutions and change. Chapters one and two examine international aspects of the 1973 coup and how these influenced the development of politics inside Chile. Chapters three four and five provide empirical analyses of the 1989 1993 and 19992000 presidential elections respectively. Chapter six investigates how the Pinochet factor influenced developments after 1990 and the Chilean reaction to Pinochets arrest in London in 1998. Chapter seven assesses changes in the Chilean party system and links these to similar processes elsewhere. The final chapter examines the paradox that despite economic and social advances opinion polls report a low level of attachment to democracy and very low levels of confidence in political institutions.
