Resumen
ROVIRA KALTWASSER, Cristóbal. Chile: Agreed-on Transition and Weak Collective Self-Determination of Society. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2007, vol.69, n.2, pp.343-372. ISSN 2594-0651.
Chile is a country that recently tends to be catalogued as a model in the Latin American continent. This article reconstructs the history of the Chilean transition and it claims that the pacts among elites resulted in the consolidation of a low quality democratic order. The subsection on post-transition Chile questions the development of the present day Chilean democracy with regard to three deficits: closed elites, neoliberal orthodoxy and late confrontation with the authoritarian legacy. The article concludes by pointing out the Chilean society's present difficulty to increase its collective self-determination.
