Autoritarismo y participación: el pensamiento político de Jaime Guzmán

Abstract

The subject of this paper is to deep in the way that Guzmán planned to make effective social participation in an authoritarian context like Pinochet’s Chile (1973-1990). We will see how Guzmán considered civil participation as an essential requirement in order to get a modern democracy which would be opened in Chile after the military dictatorship. He supported this idea through the concepts of subsidiarity State and liberal economy policy.
