Recensioner i media

“What's the relationship of political and economic injustice? This much anticipated tome exposes the lie of the Pinochet myth of the so called Chilean success story under its period of dictatorship: To the contrary, as the authors clearly show here repression and economic inequality went hand in hand producing long-term devastating consequences for Chile and other countries in the region today. A must read.”
