Nevertheless friedmanovcem initially did not go according to plan; their students were after return

A brief (and incomplete, of course) a non-technical summary record of the Chilean socalcustoms miracle from the book Naomi Klein: The Shock Doctrine - Chile is the followers of Milton Friedman particular country; not only because socalcustoms there is a grand master of laissez-faire capitalism enlisted personal, but because there friedmanovci first get a chance to try out ideas in practice. The stakes are therefore many and generally socalcustoms razbobnani interpretation of them succeeded. Pinochet is indeed closures, tortured and killed, but Čilenci today are better off than their neighbors. Recipes faithful disciples of the Chicago school functioned (if not where, socalcustoms but have not been applied with sufficient vigor).
A true understanding of what actually happened, it is necessary to go more than 50 years ago, when the southern center of Latin America (Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and parts of Brazil) raging monster you developmentatizma and pink economists who are way out underdevelopment socalcustoms looking for in the industrialization that would break the dependence on exports of raw materials. Mines and oil wells are nice nationalized, limit imports of revenue to finance extensive national development programs. These are strong trade union movement and a broad middle class, the gap between rich and poor is smaller. Argentina can boast the largest middle class in the continent, Uruguay with 95 per cent literacy and universal health care. Chile, the epicenter of developmentalizma, the best schools.
The situation, of course, not all povšeči; First, of course, here's completely marginal Economics Department of the University of Chicago socalcustoms with a Master Friedman, who despairing of the prevalence of pink economists and attractiveness of their development model for developing countries; a friedmanovci were then still completely irrelevant to the edge without power; need to have an ally; find the fittest - international, mainly US corporations with strong economic interests in South America. Nationalization, the redistribution of social wealth and trade restrictions have not smelled.
Born in these projects Chile, in which the first Chilean students, and later also from other South American countries, at the expense of US taxpayers and various socalcustoms foundations, especially Ford, droves to study in the United States. Certainly not anywhere - for alma mater was determined socalcustoms - surprise - University of Chicago and its insignificant economic department. Maximum Chilean university socalcustoms has this "organized transfer of ideology" rebelled and refused to cooperate. Less and less reputable Catholic University, then a completely free economic department socalcustoms has consented.
Nevertheless friedmanovcem initially did not go according to plan; their students were after returning to his homeland socalcustoms without power and the opportunity to apply the acquired socalcustoms knowledge into practice. The situation socalcustoms was simply awful; the election of 1970 was the political scene shifted to the left so that all three major political parties socalcustoms advocated socalcustoms the nationalization of Chile so important socalcustoms copper mines, friedmanovskih ideas, the political barometer is not even able to detect it. Allende, a socialist exemplary Democrat wins, Friedman bunch of friends, among which especially excels ITT Corporation, which literally dictate US foreign policy toward Chile, and makes every effort to destabilize the new government economically.
September 11, 1973 by shock at the scene in cahoots with the army, the church and the rich industrialists and landowners enter Uncle Pinochet. CIA provides all the necessary support. Under the reign of Pinochetovo socalcustoms killed around 3,200 people, 80,000, and 200,000 by closing them flee the country. Given the rich history of violence in the 20th century, numbers at first glance might not anything special, but the key lies elsewhere; Pinochet violence can not be swept under the carpet as raving mad, bloodthirsty dictator who killed and tortured instead of golf; violence is high instrumentalizirano, indispensable to the introduction of "pure" capitalism in a country where it is a democratic way certainly could not happen.
Chicago guys were ready; write the Pinochet economic program socalcustoms and occupied most of the important government positions. When it was necessary to convince the correctness of the direction of Pinochet, who was like a soldier, of course, a complete economic Marksman, flew himself master of Milton. Reports of executions and torture, which are full of the world's media, the Prophet capitalist freedom is not wrong. When he was asked about it later, it was argued that offered only "technical assistance". Yes, and stoker in Auschwitz as well. The fact that the violence was focused primarily socalcustoms on the key opponents of the new economic program (for example, trade union leaders) that it was necessary for the emergence of "freedom" ala Milton, our Nobel laureate overlooked. Without violence, which is in the grip of fear working class masses, their leaders, trade unions and leftist intellectuals, Milton, Chile has neither "for burek".
Well, Pinochet, the reconciliation of work and all the enthusiasm implement the program; privatization, dereg
