As Chile has continued to grow and prosper in the twenty-first
century, this new edition of the definitive history of the country
brings the story of its political, social and cultural development
up to date. It describes how Ricardo Lagos and Michelle Bachelet,
both highly educated Socialists, modernized the country and
integrated new interests into Chilean political life, and how the
billionaire, Harvard-trained economist Sebastian Pinera, who
succeeded Bachelet, addressed the problems caused by the 2010
tsunami. In the last twenty years Chile diversified its economy,
replaced a number of Pinochet's organizations with more inclusive
institutions, cultivated Chilean culture, modernized its
constitution, and fomented reconciliation of the various political
factions - until economic crisis in early 2018 caused political
chaos and occasionally violent public protest. Based on new
statistics to measure Chile's economic and social development, this
volume celebrates Chile's achievements and dissects its failures.
