Carrying Chile's story up to the present, she now offers this vivid account of how Chile rebuilt its democracy after 17 years of military rule-with the former dictator watching, and waiting, from the sidelines. Spooner discusses the major players, events, and institutions in Chile's recent political history, delving into such topics as the environmental situation, the economy, and the election of Michelle Bachelet. Throughout, she examines Pinochet's continuing influence on public life as she tells how he grudgingly ceded power, successfully fought investigations into his human rights record and finances, kept command of the army for eight years after leaving the presidency, was detained on human rights charges, and died without being convicted of any of the many serious crimes of which he was accused. Chile has now become one of South America's greatest economic and political successes, but as we find in The General's Slow Retreat, it remains a country burdened with a painful past. 606 $aChile -- Politics and government -- 1988- 606 $aChile - Politics and government - 1988- 606 $aDemocratization - Chile 606 $aDemocratization -- Chile 606 $aPinochet Ugarte, Augusto 606 $aPinochet Ugarte, Augusto 606 $aDemocratization$zChile 606 $aGovernment - Non-U.S$2HILCC 606 $aLaw, Politics & Government$2HILCC 606 $aGovernment - Central & South America$2HILCC 607 $aChile$xPolitics and government$y1988- 608 $aElectronic books. 615 4$aChile -- Politics and government -- 1988-. 615 4$aChile - Politics and government - 1988-. 615 4$aDemocratization - Chile. 615 4$aDemocratization -- Chile. 615 4$aPinochet Ugarte, Augusto. 615 4$aPinochet Ugarte, Augusto. 615 0$aDemocratization 615 7$aGovernment - Non-U.S. 615 7$aLaw, Politics & Government 615 7$aGovernment - Central & South America 676 $a983.06/6 700 $aSpooner$b Mary Helen, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0994769 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465508803321 996 $aThe General's Slow Retreat$92444150 997 $aUNINA
