Abstract
N NOVEMBER 1970, Marxist socialist Salvador Allende took office as President of Chile, vowing to bring about revolutionary change by working within, and not against, the country's constitutional democratic tradition. Through its skillful use of powerful executive prerogatives, Allende's Popular Unity (UP) government brought a major part of Chile's economy under state control. In addition, it nationalized the country's once foreign-owned copper mines, eliminated its latifundia, and secured important material benefits for popular and working-class groups.
