They Dance Alone
This study examines the dynamics driving domestic political violence in Chile from 1966 to the present, with special emphasis on the growing numbers of dead and disappeared. Two basic structues, both self-reinforcing, are examiend from the perspective of the emergence of a Chilean garrison state. The first of these encompasses the domestic political and economic context, dealing primarily with antiregime conflict and the response it engages from the government. The second structure examines the strong linkage between the foreign policy of Chile and its internal domestic conflict nexus. Empirical results suggest the paralysis of Chilean policy in a mode of violent political repression that produces no internal reduction in domestic conflict and at the same time, stimulates the extent and scope of Chilean foreign policy conflicts with other nations.
