Description

Analyzes Chile's political economy over the last 30 years and the country's attempt to build a market society in a highly inegalitarian society, now as a member country of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). It documents the growing concentration of economic power among small groups of elites in Chile and discusses the limits of the democratic system post-Pinochet.
