Schlotterbeck explores popular politics in Chile in the decade before Augusto Pinochetrsquo;s dictatorship and provides an in-depth account of how working-class people transformed the existing social order by embracing radical politics. Schlotterbeck eloquently examines the lost opportunities for creating a democratic revolution and the ways that the legacy of this period continues to resonate in Chile and beyond.BR BR Learn more about the author and this book in a href=
