Throughout the twentieth century, the Chilean business elite has
played a central role in the country, not just as entrepreneurs but
also as political and social actors. The chapters in this book, the
first in English on the history of Chilean business, focus on the
importance of diversified family business groups in
twentieth-century Chile, their dynamics, organisation, and
management, and their interaction with foreign investors and the
state. Using a range of company and government archives, as well as
other contemporary sources in Chile, Britain, and the United
States, the individual authors pay particular attention to many key
topics: the evolution of the Edwards family businesses, those of
Pascual Baburizza, Chilean corporate networks, British firms in the
nitrate industry, the Anglo South American Bank, the Copec group,
Compania Explotadora de Tierra del Fuego, the energy sector, SOFOFA
(the industrialists' association), and the recent growth of Chilean
multinationals.
