The State and Capital in Chile1996

"In this book-length extension of an earlier article on economic policy under Pinochet, Silva analyzes the interplay of social groups (principally capitalists and landowners), state structure, economic ideas, and international factors in affecting economic policy agenda setting, formulation, and implementation. He stresses the importance of shifting coalitions of economic elites, challenging the view that the regime's technocratic advisers were either of a single mind or immune to outside pressures"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
