Description: "This excellent, comprehensive study of education, health, labor markets, income distribution, the role of the State, copper, foreign trade, savings, investment, etc. until 1991, makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the Chilean development process. Hojman concludes 'that all the technical and political conditions are there to solve any remaining or foreseeable problems, and that future government mistakes... are likely to be small and swiftly corrected' (p. 203)"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
