The Cycle of Discontent in Chile

The cycle of contention that started in two thousand six a basically built up to a the uprising that happened in october. And we can need to understand that specific cycle of contention in relation to the previous years of the transition to democracy, in which the system was very precarious. We need to remember that pinoche was the chief of the arme forces in chile and then became senator for life with impunity immunity. People were worried about protesting a system that they saw as precarious, because they thought they could go back to dictatorship.
