Summary "This book does not pursue mere academic speculation. Today in Chile many people are claiming their rights, criticizing the lack of legitimacy of governmental institutions, and demanding more political and social involvement. Popular support for both government and the opposition has simultaneously declined. Our political environment is full of unresolved conflicts. Our institutional framework perpetuates inequality, while the economy grows modestly, in the midst of an unfavourable international climate"-- Provided by publisher
