Battle of Chile (Le Monde Diplomacy)

In the early 1970s, Chile’s journey on the “democratic road to socialism” under Salvador Allende was an attractive subject for the left. And on September 11, 1973, General Pinochet’s coup d’état shocked the world. More recently, Chile’s progressive forces have once again grown in strength and are attracting attention. This selection of archives attempts to gain a deeper understanding of the political turmoil in the former neoliberal laboratory, from the time of Allende to the time of Gabriel Boric, by delving deeper into history.
