In the case of the health sector, while there has been increasing consensus among policy makers, providers and users about the need for structural change, there has been no similar understanding on the content of a health reform agenda. The definition of the problems to be solved, the means to solve them, as well as the speed and scope of policy change continue to be contentious issues, as they each affect the interests of different groups and individuals. As a result, the political dimension of health reform formulation and implementation has come to the foreground as it has proven to be a key factor in determining the feasibility of health policy change as well as its final outcome. The Chilean health reform implemented in the early 80’s has brought the attention of academics and policy makers alike. Although the fact that it took place under a military regime makes it an exemption in the Region, the Chilean reform process has been emulated to some degree or another, both in process and content. Discussions about the effectiveness and appropriateness of the strategies used by the team of reformers in contexts with more open political systems have not reached an end, and continue to influence on going policy processes. The careful analysis of the political context and the policy process within which health reform initiatives evolved in Chile, as well as of the actors involved, hopes to bring to light important lessons about the political strategies that have been put in motion by policy makers elsewhere in the Region interested in increasing the political feasibility of current health reform efforts. iii POLITICAL ECONOMY CONTEXT The study of any aspect of the various socio-economic reforms which were carried out during the 70s an 80s in Chile must take into consideration the institutional context within which these reforms were formulated and implemented. There is widespread agreement that a fundamental factor in successfully bringing about the quite sweeping reforms of the period was the fact that Chile was governed by a military regime which was able to present itself as a cohesive unit. It must be stated at the outset, however, that the military regime’s cohesiveness was only apparent, and that reform policy proposals had to go through a quite strenuous process of discussion and alteration within the state apparatus before they reached final form. It is indeed one of the greater successes of the military government that it was able to appear to its opponents outside of the state apparatus as a "monolithic, fissure-less entity." One of the factors which contributed to this appearance of lack of disagreement within the government was the fact that

Augusto Pinochet's government. Alejandro Foxley, 50, heads Aylwin's economic team, and is expected to become Finance Minister if the opposition candidate wins. He received a doctorate in economics from the University of Wisconsin, is president of an economic research institute in Santiago, and holds an endowed chair in economics at the University of Notre Dame. Foxley was cited by the New York Times as saying that an Aylwin economic team would produce change with stability, and would not seek to modify prevailing economic rules. He said, "Democracy cannot totally frustrate the aspirations and hopes of people.

EIDAHL has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Patrick M. Barr-Melej Professor of History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT EIDAHL, BRAD T., Ph.D., December 2017, History Writing the Opposition: Power, Coercion, Legitimacy and the Press in Pinochet's Chile Director of Dissertation: Patrick M. Barr-Melej This dissertation examines the struggle between Chile’s opposition press and the dictatorial regime of Augusto Pinochet Ugarte (1973-1990). It argues that due to Chile’s tradition of a pluralistic press and other factors, and in bids to strengthen the regime’s legitimacy, Pinochet and his top officials periodically demonstrated considerable flexibility in terms of the opposition media’s ability to publish and distribute its products. However, the regime, when sensing that its grip on power was slipping, reverted to repressive measures in its dealings with opposition-media outlets. Meanwhile, opposition journalists challenged the very legitimacy Pinochet sought and further widened the scope of acceptable opposition under difficult circumstances. Ultimately, such resistance contributed to Pinochet’s defeat in the 1988 plebiscite, initiating the return of democracy.

  • Directing Approaches from Contemporary Chilean Women
    EXPANDING THEATRE: DIRECTING APPROACHES FROM CONTEMPORARY CHILEAN WOMEN DIRECTORS A THESIS IN Theatre Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by MARY ALLISON JOSEPH B.A., University of South Carolina, 2009 Kansas City, Missouri 2020 © 2020 MARY ALLISON JOSEPH ALL RIGHTS RESERVED EXPANDING THEATRE: DIRECTING APPROACHES FROM CONTEMPORARY CHILEAN WOMEN DIRECTORS Mary Allison Joseph, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2020 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the careers, theatrical ideologies, and directing methodologies of three contemporary Chilean women stage directors: Andrea Giadach, Alexandra von Hummel, and Ignacia González. Respective chapters provide an overview of each director’s career that includes mention of formative moments. Each chapter also includes a synthesis of the director’s thinking as distilled from personal interviews and theoretical works, followed by a methodological case study that allows for analysis of specific directing methods, thus illuminating the director’s beliefs in action. In each chapter, the author asserts that the director’s innovative thinking and creative practices constitute expansions of the theatrical artform. Finally, the author traces similarities across the directing approaches of the three directors, which suggest guiding ideas for expanding the theatrical artform. Chapter one explores the directing career of Andrea Giadach, with highlights including her acting experiences in La lluvia de verano (2005) and Mateluna (2012) and her iii directing projects Mi mundo patria (2008) and Penélope ya no espera (2014). Her beliefs about political theatre are illuminated through a directing case study of her 2019 production of El Círculo.

  • The Natural Choice for Wildlife Holidays Welcome
    HOLIDAYS WITH 100% FINANCIAL PROTECTION The natural choice for wildlife holidays Welcome After spending considerable time and effort reflecting, questioning what we do and how we do it, and scrutinising the processes within our office and the systems we use for support, I am delighted to say that we are imbued with a new vigour, undiminished enthusiasm, and greater optimism than ever. My own determination to continue building on the solid foundation of twenty years of experience in wildlife tourism, since we started from very humble beginnings – to offer what is simply the finest selection of high quality, good value, tailor-made wildlife holidays – remains undaunted, and is very much at the core of all we do. A physical move to high-tech office premises in the attractive city of Winchester leaves us much better connected to, and more closely integrated with, the outside world, and thus better able to receive visitors. Our team is leaner, tighter, more widely travelled and more knowledgeable than ever before, allowing us to focus on terrestrial, marine and – along with Dive Worldwide – submarine life without distraction. In planning this brochure we deliberately set out to whet the appetite, and make no mention of either dates or prices. As the vast majority of trips are tailored to our clients’ exact requirements – whether in terms of itinerary, duration, standard of accommodation or price – the itineraries herein serve merely as indications of what is possible. Thereafter, you can refine these suggestions in discussion with one of our experienced consultants to pin down your precise needs and wants, so we can together create the wildlife holiday of your dreams.

  • Pinochet Paper
    Ding 1 Augusto Pinochet Interlake High School 19 June 2013 Chunyang Ding Word Count: 1867 Ding 2 Although General Augusto Pinochet is commonly seen by Americans as the stereotypical dictator, bent on dominating his country and killing innocent civilians without just cause, his actual rise and rule was ridiculed with holes in his power. Although he is hated today for his crimes against humanity, under him Chile became a powerful economy in South America, and he succeeded in accomplishing a peaceful transition to a democratic government once again. Chile before Pinochet had a republican government, but under the democratically elected Salvador Allende, the nation headed towards socialism. Allende, as part of the Unidad Popular party, had a distinct goal of manipulating companies and labor to approach the “Chilean way to Socialism” (Zapata 85). Through this type of manipulation, there was a marked increase in the number of strikes in the country, and as the Marxist government under Allende clashed with the traditionally strong labor movement within Chile, tensions arose. Eventually, this culminating in opposing political powers through their strength behind supporting strikes, such as the El Teniente copper strike, which was able to help discredit the Allende government (Zapata 94). This type of economic failure resulted in waves of unrest within the general population, as well as a growing politically unease throughout the area. Due to his economic policies, Allende was not particular popular within Chile, but he was just as hated within the United States. Although there were Chilean solidarity groups within the United States that supported the democratic socialism that Allende pursued, the United States media still continued to view Allende as a tyrant, with Newsweek publishing articles of “Chile under the Gun”, referring to Allende (Power 51).

This uprising ushered in an era of dictatorship that was to last 17 years. Throughout this dark period of Chilean history, democracy, free debate, and the equitable distribution of resources were all low priorities on the agenda of a government with a well-documented record of human rights abuses. For the people of Chile, this was a time many would rather put behind them. But there are signs of change in this coastal South American country. A Following the overthrow of leave that institution in the wake of the special plebiscite in October 1988 gave President Salvador Allende in 1973, military coup and, anticipating a Chileans an opportunity to reject the new government assumed control lengthy period of rigid dictatorship, set Pinochet’s claim to power.
