    By Private Chef Amalia Damgaard CHILEAN PANORAMA Although it appears slim and small, Chile is a long and narrow country about the size of Texas, with a vast coast line covering about 3,998 miles. The Pacific Ocean borders to the west; Argentina is a neighbor to the east; Bolivia, to the northeast; and Peru, to the north. Because of its geographical location, Chile has an unusual and fun landscape, with deserts, beaches, fjords, glaciers and icebergs, fertile lands, the Andes mountains, over 600 volcanoes (some active), and sub-artic conditions in the South. Since Chile is below the equator, their seasons are different from ours in the United States. So, when we have winter they have summer, and so on. Even though Chile had years of political and economic turmoil, it has evolved into a market-oriented economy with strong foreign trade. Currently, it has the strongest economy in South America, with a relatively-low crime rate, and a high standard of living. Chile is a land rich in beauty, culture, and literature. It is called “the Switzerland of South America” because of its natural splendor. World renowned poets, Pablo Neruda and Gabriela Mistral, won Nobel Prizes. The majority of Chileans are descendants of Europeans, namely Spanish, French, and German, and others in smaller numbers. Allegedly, the original inhabitants of the region prior to Spanish conquest were not natives but merely nomads who lived in the area. Their descendants are today about 3% of the population. A mixture of the so-called natives and European settlers is called “mestizo.” Today’s mestizos are so well blended that they look mostly European.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the past 20 years, Chile and Venezuela have followed divergent paths of democratic and economic development. When the Cold War ended, Venezuela was one of the few Latin American countries where democracy had survived the authoritarian wave of the 1960s and 1970s. Heralded in the late 1980s as the most stable democracy and one of the most developed and globalized economies in the region, Venezuela has since experienced deterioration of democratic institutions, political polarization, economic stagnation, and instability.

  • Venezuela Vs. Chile
    VENEZUELA VS. CHILE Segment Length: 5:54 minutes Lesson Description: Does capitalism “suck”? Does socialism work better? Why do so many people support socialism? This segment looks at the effects of socialism in Venezuela and contrasts it to Chile, considered one of South America’s most prosperous countries. Concepts and Key Terms: Socialism—An economic system in which the production, distribution, and exchange of products and services is regulated or owned by government. Supporters argue that government control—control by “the people”—is in the best interests of the community as a whole. Free Market—An economic system in which the provision of products and services is generally arranged by buyers and sellers without interference by government. Often used synonymously with capitalism, free enterprise, and laissez-faire. Objectives: Students will be able to: • discuss political and economic changes that impacted Venezuela and Chile. • compare and contrast conditions in Venezuela and Chile. • weigh the effects of socialism and market reforms on a country and on the citizens of that country. Preview Activity and Questions: Have students answer the following question in their notebooks: Do you ever complain about how “tough” life is for you at times? When do you tend to complain? Why then? Use Think, Pair, Share to have students answer the preview question. Ask them to look for similarities and differences in their answers. After a few minutes, poll the students and ask them to explain their answers. Viewing Guide: It is recommended that teachers show the video segment twice: once to allow students to view the video and focus on the issues presented, and once to allow them time to complete the viewing guide.

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.

BRAND This article initiates a series in which the writer will attempt to summarize the scattered and commonly contradictory material on the present ethnic and linguistic constituency of a number of Latin Ameri- can countries. It represents some personal investigations in the field and an examination of much of the pertinent literature. Chile has been a sovereign state since the War of Independence 1810-26. This state was founded upon a nuclear area west of the Andean crest and essentially between 240 and 460 South Latitude. Through the War of the Pacific with Bolivia and Perui in 1879-1883 and peaceful agreements with Argentina, Chile acquired her present extention from Arica to Tierra del Fuego. These northern and south- ern acquisitions added little to her population but introduced numerous small ethnic and linguistic groups. Chile has taken national censuses in 1835, 1843, 1854, 1865, 1875, 1885, 1895, 1907, 1920, 1930, and the most recent one in November of 1940.

Armstrong 1 Ben Armstrong IPE Term Paper A Landlocked Bolivia: Disputes between Bolivia, Peru and Chile. Vast expanses of desert, rainforest, mountain, and coastal biomes sprawl across Peru, Bolivia and Chile. These diverse countries hold not only striking beauty throughout these regions, but also vast natural resources. In the Atacama Desert region, the discovery of such important natural resources have left residual problems lingering in the economic and political relations between these South American nations, and still cause tensions today. This paper explores historic disputes over resources on the borders where all these nations meet, and how they affect current politics and economic relationships, specifically related to Bolivia’s desire to regain access to the sea. Then, current solutions and development of the problem are analyzed, and a suggested long-term solution is presented that could best address the border disputes. Territorial controversies in the Atacama Desert region where Peru, Chile and Bolivia meet are not a recent development.
