Reviews

'A bold, insightful analysis of Chilean political economy from Pinochet to the present' -- Professor Ronaldo Munck, Dublin City University, author of numerous books including: Critical Development Theory: Contributions to a New Paradigm (1999), Contemporary Latin America (2002), and Labour and Globalisation: A New Great Transformation (2003).
'The definitive treatment of Latin America's deepest and most prolonged embrace of the neoliberal project. Detailed, incisive, carefully constructed, lean yet sweeping, this book is a supreme dissection of Chile's socially-engineered contemporary dystopia' -- James M. Cypher, Professor of Development Studies, Universidad Autonoma de Zacatecas, Mexico
