State And Capital In Chile

Discover a profound analysis of Chile's political landscape in "State And Capital In Chile" by Eduardo Bonilla Silva, published by Taylor & Francis Ltd in 2019. This hardback edition spans 288 pages and delves into the significant consequences of coalitional shifts during Chile's transition to democracy. Bonilla Silva argues compellingly that the lack of a multiclass opposition, which included capitalists, played a pivotal role in facilitating a political transition rooted in the authoritarian constitution of 1980. This insightful examination not only sheds light on Chile's past but also provides context for understanding its present political dynamics. An essential read for anyone interested in Latin American politics, democracy, and state-capital relationships, this book is a valuable addition to your library.
