Description
With a focus on Chile, Pinochet's Economic Accomplices: An Unequal Country by
Force uses theoretical arguments and empirical studies to argue that focusing on
the behavior of economic actors of the dictatorship is crucial to achieve basic objectives
in terms of justice, memory, reparation, and non-repetition measures. This
book makes visible a number of cases of economic complicity with the Chilean
dictatorship and explains their links with the radical inequalities the country has
today while proposing a theoretical framework for their study. Scholars of Latin
American studies, history, sociology, economics, business, and human rights will
find this book particularly useful.
