From what I can tell, COHA would rather pretend that somehow, between 1988 and 2010, Chile's amazing economic prowess simply appeared out of thin air. No COHA, the Chicago Boys did change the country, even if that does sting. Pinochet may have been a fascist thug, but he did know how to pick economic advisors.

The USA supported the Administration of President Eduardo Frei Montalva (1964-1970) which implemented a very well designed Agrarian Reform porgram, directed significanrt pubic resorces to provide education and health care services in rural areas, and took majoritary control of the copper mining sector. In fact social development indicators improved more in Chile during the 6 years of Frei's presidency than during the first decade of Castro's rule in Cuba.
