Measuring and comparing species of capital in the Chilean political elite, 1990-2010. 330 $aAlthough sociological research has examined the reproduction of Chile's elites, there is little empirical evidence as to how different forms of capital operate within them. Based on a survey of the country's elites, this study examines the effect of different forms of capital (cultural, social and political) on access to strategic positions in the legislative and executive branches of government. It focuses on the political elite between 1990, when military dictator Augusto Pinochet handed over the presidency to Patricio Aylwin, his democratically elected successor, and 2010, the end of President Michelle Bachelet's first government. At least three points are germane to this analysis: (1) understanding the nature of the party elites during the political transition; (2) describing and explaining the main aspects of the party elites' background and social resources, including their family networks (independent variables); and (3) exploring the effect of those variables on individuals' chances of achieving strategic positions in the political field, comparing the legislative and executive branches as represented by deputies and ministers (dependent variable). 606 $aPolitical sociology 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aAmerica$xPolitics and government 606 $aPolitical Sociology 606 $aSocial Theory 606 $aSocial Structure 606 $aAmerican Politics 615 0$aPolitical sociology. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aAmerica$xPolitics and government. 615 14$aPolitical Sociology. 615 24$aSocial Theory. 615 24$aSocial Structure. 615 24$aAmerican Politics. 676 $a983.064 676 $a300 (edition:22) 700 $aGarrido-Vergara$b Luis$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0931540 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910407710303321 996 $aSpecies of Capital in the Political Elite$92095498 997 $aUNINA
