Summary
The long process of modernization, which in the Western world manifested itself as a maelstrom of contradictions due to huge demographic upheavals, unprecedented urban growth, a burgeoning state bureaucracy, and technological advances that resulted in uneven industrial development and socioeconomic prosperity, started in Chile soon after its independence in 1810 and lasted until 1973, the beginning of Pinochet’s military dictatorship. This process of rapid changes, confusion, and excitement, which accompanied Chile’s entry into the expanding and fluctuating capitalist world market, occurred in two phases.
