Extract

The aim of this article is to present and comment briefly on the tendencies and changes that have occurred in the organization of the Chilean industrial sector during the 1970-80s. First of all, it must be borne in mind that this was one of the most unstable periods in Chilean economic development, due both to the profound political changes that have taken place in the country and to the great instability of the international economy. These situations have affected the structure of the industrial sector in such a way that it is impossible to analyze it exclusively in terms of the performance of traditional indicators, such as production, employment, productivity, trade, and so forth. The transformation of the system of economic organization in Chile has brought about radical changes in the international insertion of the economy, the price system, the distribution of income, the structure of property, and the relations between the state and the private sector, which cannot be disregarded in an analysis of this nature.
