Clientelism in Chile
Contemporary history of a political custom (1992-2012)
$22.000
This book is destined to become an indispensable contribution to reassessing the characteristics of the Chilean political system. Innovative, daring, erudite, and well-written, it demystifies the relations between society and political parties in Chile during the 20th century, which have traditionally been considered ideological in nature. Without completely ruling this out, it shows us that clientelism has been a long-standing practice in the country and that, furthermore, starting in the 1990s, it has been able to adapt to the crisis of party representation by strongly embedding itself in local governments. It constitutes an essential work for reflecting on the relationship between the social and the political in Chile's recent history.
