Title: Fear in Chile
Description: "Fear in Chile is an extraordinary collection of first-person accounts of life under dictatorship. In the 1980s, shortly after Chile emerged from one of the century's most notorious reigns of terror, Chilean journalist Patricia Politzer interviewed a revolutionary activist, a military leader loyal to General Augusto Pinochet, a bank clerk concerned with the status quo, the mother of one of the "disappeared," and a dozen other men and women from every political position and social stratum of Chilean life.

The result is a broad, vivid, yet nonideological view of modern life under military rule." "With the October 1998 arrest of Pinochet in Great Britain and renewed world awareness of the horrendous crimes commited during his regime, Fear in Chile, updated with a new afterword by the author, tells us much about the human spirit."--BOOK JACKET.
