Civil society under dictatorship
Transnational Relations, Organizations, and Political Socialization in Chile

One of the central objectives of any dictatorship is to dismantle the organizations that constitute the social body it seeks to mutilate, and this is how it happened in the Chilean dictatorship. However, human societies have historically demonstrated that they are not “objects” that simply let themselves be destroyed. This book takes a careful and stealthy journey through that re-creative process of society, recognizing its physiognomy, its weaknesses, its renewed strength, and its transformative mobility.
