In this episode of Memory, Evidence, Change, our host speaks with Dr. Lisa DiGiovanni about her book Militarized Masculinity in Spain and Chile: Remembering Violence through Film and Literature. Dr. DiGiovanni explores how gender, militarism, and authoritarian power intersect in dictatorial regimes, and how film and literature help us understand the cultural forces that sustain violence. Drawing on feminist theory, historical analysis, and visual storytelling, she explains the concept of militarized masculinity and its role in shaping political repression under the Franco and Pinochet regimes. The conversation also examines how memory, media, and critical analysis can help us recognize patterns of violence and better understand the roots of authoritarianism in both past and present contexts. This episode highlights the importance of interdisciplinary research—and the power of storytelling—to deepen our understanding of genocide, political violence, and the ongoing struggle for justice and human rights.

As we move towards Total Systemic Change, shifting from the death cult of predatory capitalism towards a future we'd actually be proud to leave behind, our absolute baseline non-negotiable foundations must be Clean Air, Clean Water, Clean Soil. We talk a lot about regenerative agriculture on this podcast, and how we can rebuild living soils from the inert growing media we've created in the hellscapes of Industrial Agriculture. One day, we'll talk about Clean Air. Today, we're talking about water, that utterly essential part of our biological and spiritual lives. It should be clean. It should be safe to drink, to swim in, for us and all the species with whom we share our beautiful blue pearl of a watery planet. As we all know… it's not. It's not because our system values profit over the vibrancy of life. It's not because people in suits have found that if they treat our rivers as open sewers and our oceans as waste dumps they can get away with it. It's not because for too long, we've believed the stories that say there is no alternative and this is the way the world has to be. But the masks are coming off and activism is increasingly being seen as an act of radical, necessary resistance that can bring people together, bridging across the false, toxic cultural divides that the establishment creates so that we fight ourselves instead of working towards a world founded on different values. The push for clean water is one of the most unifying drives we have. It doesn't matter where you are on the political spectrum, you don't vote for sewage to be poured into the rivers, for the dead zones in the oceans to grow and join up, for the rain to be full of forever toxins so that some suit in a company C-suites can buy themselves a new private jet and an invitation to Jeffrey Epstein's private parties. In the UK, we're in an almost unique position because back in the 80s, Margaret Thatcher saw Pinochet privatising the water and sewage companies in Chile and decided this was a fine idea and imported it wholesale to the UK. Our water and sewage companies were privatised at a steal in 1989 and pretty much everyone is agreed this is an incredibly bad idea. Except successive governments. So people got together and formed their own activist groups based around the rivers near them - there's always at least one - and they are conducting citizen science, holding people's assemblies and generally making enough of a nuisance of themselves that those in power have to take notice. All this being the case, it's World Water Day on March 22nd every year and this year - we're recording in 2026 for those of you who listen years later - we're talking to Claire Kirby co-founder of Up Sewage Creek and a member of the Sewage Campaign Network. I first met Claire when my last dog was young - so nearly 20 years ago. She has a degree in Environmental Science from King's College London and then went on to become a Pet Behaviour Specialist who used to run rather wonderful puppy training classes. In 2020, following an episode of this podcast, she undertook a training with Trust the People and went on to co-found Up Sewage Creek, an activist group based around the River Severn in Shrewsbury on the borders between England and Wales. More recently, she has become an active part of the Sewage Campaign Network and is actively campaigning against the latest Government White Paper on the Water Industry which as much of a greenwash/whitewash as you'd expect. This was a lively conversation, a lot of it focussed on the situation in England, mainly because we live here and it's pretty bad. But wherever you are in the world, you have water somewhere near you and I guarantee it's not clean - and there will be people around you who care that it become cleaner. Clearly if you're in a war zone, even if it's an as-yet undeclared civil war, this is not your highest priority and I really do want to honour the people of Minnesota, Maine and Oregon who are taking to the streets in freezing weather to face the Terrorist gangs unleashed by the US government. You have other things to think about than the quality of your water, though not far away in Flint, Michigan, there is one of the most egregious failures of local politics ever to express itself in the quality of the water, so this is clearly a universal problem. We each do what we can. For those of us not facing pepper spray, uniting our communities so that nobody is ever prepared to join up to the government's shock troops might be the front line. If testing water is your thing, please do it. And to find out how and why to connect and converge, let's talk to Claire Kirby of Up Sewage Creek.

For the first time in history, multiple countries have jointly nominated a candidate for UN Secretary General. Earlier this week, Brazil, Chile, and Mexico endorsed Michelle Bachelet—a former president of Chile, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and a survivor of brutal repression under the Pinochet regime. The move is unprecedented—and potentially transformative. What does it signal about the race to replace António Guterres, and how soon might more rival candidates emerge? Anjali and Mark unpack what this coordinated nomination reveals about shifting power dynamics inside the UN. They then turn to the latest Epstein document dump, which has ensnared several prominent diplomats and sent shockwaves through the diplomatic world. Finally, they confront a looming institutional crisis: the UN's cash reserves are so depleted that even the viability of this year's UNGA is now being called into question.
el eco del golpe de Estado del 11 de septiembre de 1973 en Chile sigue resonando.. l Tanquetazo fue un intento de golpe de Estado que tuvo lugar en Chile el 29 de junio de 1973, unos tres meses antes del golpe que derrocó al presidente Salvador Allende. El intento fue liderado por el general Roberto Viaux, quien movilizó tanques y tropas del ejército para tomar el Palacio de La Moneda, sede del gobierno. Aunque el Tanquetazo fue aplacado y no logró derrocar al gobierno de Allende, disparó la polaridad política y aumentó la inestabilidad en Chile. Las tensiones y el clima de agitación culminaron en el golpe militar liderado por el general Augusto Pinochet. https://www.es.amnesty.org/en-que-estamos/blog/historia/articulo/50-anos-del-golpe-de-estado-encabezado-por-pinochet-en-chile/

Are we seeing the emergence of a new conjuncture for urbanism? The final part of our mini series asks whether authoritarian neoliberalism has created the conditions for a more illiberal and distinct type of urban governance . Authoritarianism is not new to neoliberalism – the Pinochet regime, Thatcherism in the UK – these were evidently authoritarian and neoliberal, and given crises and stagnation it is no surprise to see these tendencies re-animated. But is something more also happening? The high point of neoliberal hegemony was associated with the development of technocratic, often obscure, market systems as well as notions of ‘sustainable development and even at times ‘participation' and ‘consensus' even if these were highly circumscribed. When we look at some new urban projects today, and those envisaged by leading powers, there seems to be less room for both markets, preventing climate breakdown or ‘woke' notions of democracy and instead a more naked focus on iconoclastic real estate projects regardless of the social and ecological cost. The episode is hosted by Gareth Fearn with guests Jason Luger, Miklós Dürr, Aysegul Can and Oksana Zaporozhets. This episode is one of a three-part series which cover different aspects of ‘authoritarian neoliberal urbanism', based on a special issue in the Urban Studies Journal edited by Guldem Ozatagan, Gareth Fearn and Ayda Eraydin.

On December 14, hard-right candidate José Antonio Kast was elected as Chile's president with over 58% of the vote. Kast built his campaign around the promise of expelling undocumented migrants and has been called the “Trump of Chile.” On today's show, host Allen Ruff is joined by journalist Nyki Duda to talk about the political history of Chile and what led to the election of Kast. Duda says that what makes Kast different from other far-right leaders like Trump or Bolsonaro, is that he developed his career within the institutional Right in Chile. His father was a member of the German Nazi Party who fled Europe to avoid accountability for his crimes. Kast's father established himself within the landed gentry outside of Santiago and, with Kast's brother, was involved in a series of murders around the 1973 coup. Kast's other brother was one of the “Chicago boys” who implemented neoliberalism in Chile. Kast has never renounced his family's crimes and is poised to be the most right-wing leader Chile has seen since the Pinochet dictatorship, says Duda. There was a time in the 90s when Chile was seen as a model of democracy and economic growth in Latin America coming off the repressive regimes of the 60s, 70s, and 80s. But that dream has not come to pass. Duda describes the legacy of Pinochet-era “anti-terror” laws and attempts to rewrite the dictatorship-era constitution and the media misinformation campaign against the draft of a new constitution that would have created plurinational status for Indigenous tribes and introduced rights of the environment. Duda also discusses the 2019 student protests and the violent government backlash, including the case of Nicolás Piña. Nyki Duda is an editor at Al Jazeera digital and researcher at Lead Stories. As a freelance journalist, she covers migration, social movements and far-right politics. Her writing has appeared in Truthout, Jacobin, In These Times and more.

Après l'enlèvement sidérant du président vénézuélien Nicolas Maduro par les États-Unis, quelle influence Washington pourrait avoir dans la campagne électorale en Colombie cette année ? Yann Basset, professeur de Sciences Politiques à l'Université du Rosario, à Bogota, est l'invité de RFI. La Colombie vit ces derniers mois au rythme des menaces de Donald Trump. Après avoir fait enlever Nicolas Maduro au Venezuela, le président américain a menacé le président Gustavo Petro. Avant cela, le locataire de la Maison Blanche avait déjà accusé son homologue colombien de liens avec le trafic de drogue. Il a ensuite semblé adoucir son discours : les deux dirigeants se sont parlé au téléphone le 7 janvier 2026. Les Colombiens sont tout de même inquiets, pour certains, d'un nouveau revirement du président américain à l'avenir, témoignent-ils au micro de notre correspondante en Colombie, Najet Benrabaa. Avant les élections législatives (8 mars 2026) et présidentielle (31 mai 2026), l'appel entre les deux hommes apparaît tout de même comme un signe d'apaisement qui pourrait temporairement « mettre en veille » la question du rôle des États-Unis dans la campagne, estime Yann Basset, professeur de Sciences Politiques à l'Université du Rosario à Bogota. « Cela peut montrer que Gustavo Petro est capable d'une bonne gestion des relations internationales, ou en tout cas qu'il est plus raisonnable que ne le dépeint la droite », poursuit-il. La sécurité reste néanmoins l'un des enjeux centraux de la campagne. « Gustavo Petro avait promis une "paix totale", qui a largement échoué, car les groupes armés ont profité des négociations pour se renforcer, notamment à proximité de la frontière avec le Venezuela », rappelle le chercheur. Chili: dénouement judiciaire pour un manifestant rendu aveugle Gustavo Gatica. Ce nom ne vous dit peut-être rien, mais il est bien connu au Chili : en 2019, cet étudiant a été rendu totalement aveugle par des tirs de billes de plomb des forces de l'ordre. Les Chiliens manifestaient alors contre la hausse du prix des transports publics et contre les inégalités sociales héritées de la dictature de Pinochet. Six ans après, l'ancien policier a été acquitté définitivement, lit-on en Une du quotidien conservateur El Mercurio. Il a été reconnu comme auteur des tirs mais considéré comme en état de légitime défense, précise le site CiperChile. Car Gustavo Gatica a été filmé en train de jeter une pierre en direction de la police un peu plus tôt. Ce jugement est « un triomphe historique », se félicite Claudio Crespo, l'ancien membre des forces de l'ordre, cité par radio Bío Bío. À la sortie du tribunal à Santiago, sur un ton offensif, il en a profité pour apporter son « soutien » aux policiers qui, dit-il, devront « faire face à la barbarie et à l'insurrection » ces prochains mois, car il anticipe des manifestations contre le nouveau président d'extrême-droite José Antonio Kast, qui prendra ses fonctions début mars 2026. Gustavo Gatica, lui, sera dans l'opposition. Il vient d'être élu député indépendant. Il regrette « qu'une personne qui a rendu aveugle un citoyen » ne soit pas sanctionnée par de la prison, précise le journal La Tercera. Plus de 450 personnes ont été blessées aux yeux, rendues aveugles ou éborgnées lors des manifestations de la fin 2019 au Chili. Dans le journal de La 1ère... En Martinique, cela fait trois jours que les bus du TCSP sont « à l'arrêt » entre Le Lamentin et Fort-de-France, explique Benoît Ferrand, d'Outre-Mer La 1ère.

Chile has just elected its most extreme far-right president since the Pinochet dictatorship. José Antonio Kast won the December 14 runoff by a commanding margin — a stunning reversal in a country that in 2019 experienced a massive social uprising over the unaffordability of life and extreme inequality. The social revolt ended with the pandemic lockdown, but the following year a broad leftist coalition swept into power, electing the 34-year-old former radical student leader Gabriel Boric, whose government promised to bury neoliberalism once and for all. How did Chile move so quickly from an anti-neoliberal social rebellion to the return of the hard right? Was this a vote for authoritarianism — or a vote against insecurity, inflation, and political stalemate? What does Kast's victory tell us about the global resurgence of the far right, from Latin America to Europe and the United States? Suzi examines Chile's political reversal with two Chilean analysts: Oscar Mendoza explains this electoral shift by looking at the failed constitutional process, the role of mandatory voting, media panic over crime and immigration, and the institutional constraints Kast will face in office. Pablo Abufom situates Kast's victory in a longer historical trajectory, arguing that this is the first democratic government of pinochetismo — a project combining authoritarian neoliberalism, moral conservatism and anticommunism, now aligned with a global far-right resurgence. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

Political analysts say José Antonio Kast is capable of reviving a long-suppressed Pinochetist current in Chilean politics. They warn that decades after the dictatorship, inadequate education about its violence, repression, and human rights violations has created fertile ground for its return. Alex goes over his many concerns.
Hoy hablamos sobre los resultados electorales de Extremadura, en los que la derecha ha conseguido una victoria arrasadora. El Partido Popular ha ganado las elecciones, aunque no ha conseguido la mayoría absoluta, y Vox ha duplicado el número de votos respecto a la anterior convocatoria. Mientras tanto, el PSOE se desploma mientras que Podemos se mantiene en un diez por ciento que están presentando como un éxito. En el terreno internacional, Bélgica ha bloqueado el plan de "recuperación" de los activos rusos por lo que el nuevo paquete de ayuda militar para Ucrania procederá de fondos propios europeos.

Tommy and Ben discuss the horrific Bondi Beach terror attack, the rise of antisemitism in Australia, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bad-faith attempt to connect Australia's recognition of a Palestinian state to this violence, and the perpetrators potentially training in the Philippines. They also talk about the US seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker and how it fits into President Trump's creep towards regime change, Chile's election of the most right-wing President since Pinochet and Trump gleefully taking credit, questions about why US troops are still in Syria after the death of two US soldiers, pro-democracy advocate Jimmy Lai's conviction in Hong Kong, a proposed policy to check the social media accounts of visitors to the US, the death of Jared Kushner's corrupt hotel deal in Serbia, and highlights from episode 2 of The Liz Truss Show. Then, Ben speaks to Zanny Minton Beddoes, Editor-in-Chief of The Economist, about global shifts to watch for in 2026.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

(00:00:49) Derrière l'assouplissement européen du tout électrique en 2025 (00:08:59) L'impunité des chefs d'Etat à travers l'exemple du dictateur chilien Pinochet. Invité: Philippe Sands
Chile parecía haber dejado atrás los peores años de un pasado marcado por la represión y la violencia de una dictadura militar de ultraderecha. En 2021, el país había elegido al presidente más joven y más progresista de su historia reciente que intentó recuperar el Estado del bienestar destruido por el dogma neoliberal del régimen de Pinochet. Pero cuatro años más tarde, los chilenos han votado mayoritariamente por un candidato ultra que reivindica ese pasado oscuro. Con Natalia Chientaroli, periodista de elDiario.es especializada en extrema derecha, y con Meritxell Freixas, corresponsal de la agencia Efe en Chile, analizamos quién es José Antonio Kast, el nuevo presidente chileno que ensalza el régimen de Pinochet. También intentamos explicar cómo y por qué la ultraderecha ha conseguido ganar las elecciones en un país que ya conoce la violencia de un régimen fascista. *** Envíanos una nota de voz por Whatsapp contándonos alguna historia que conozcas o algún sonido que tengas cerca y que te llame la atención.

The winner of Chile's presidential election, José Antonio Kast, is the son of a German Nazi official. He is a US-backed far-right extremist who loves Donald Trump, Israel, and fascist former dictator August Pinochet. He is also very anti-China, and will assist in Washington's attempt to impose its imperialist Monroe Doctrine. Ben Norton explains.

Pedro Sánchez descarta adelantar elecciones a pesar de los escándalos de corrupción y las acusaciones de acoso sexual contra exdirigentes del PSOE y de que las encuestas apuntan a una victoria del PP en Extremadura. Y José Antonio Kast arrasa en las urnas y la ultraderecha regresa al poder en Chile 35 años después del fin de la dictadura de Pinochet.
Tras la victoria de Kast en las elecciones chilenas, la investigadora del CIDOB, Anna Ayuso, rebaja en 'Las Mañanas de RNE' el impacto del discurso del candidato de ultraderecha en la política del país: "Una cosa es lo que Kast piense y otra lo que va a poder hacer". Ayuso asegura que Chile es un país "diferente" y pese la cercanía de José Antonio Kast con la doctrina de Pinochet cree que "no es posible" una vuelta "hacía atrás".Ayuso explica que la victoria de Kast es "histórica" por la suma de las derechas, pero a la vez pronostica que será difícil gobernar porque los diferentes partidos "no piensan" todo lo mismo y van a tener que negociar pese a ser el "grupo mayoritario"Escuchar audio
Derrière la révolte des agriculteurs, on reparle à nouveau du fameux Mercosur. Selon Géraldine Woessner, effectivement, cet accord n'est pas le monstre que l'on décrit. Il présente même quelques avantages. C'est la raison pour laquelle la commission le pousse avec d'autant plus de rigueur. L'explosion des départs de vacances de Noël, le taux d'épargne record, le marché des aliments, y compris de luxe, pour les animaux domestiques qui a une croissance folle… Pascal Perri se dit que selon ces indicateurs il y a aussi une France qui va bien, et même très bien. José Antonio Kast du Parti républicain a été élu président du Chili avec 58 % des voix. Abnousse Shalmani ne pense pas qu'il y a un effet “Pinochet est de retour, tous aux abris”. C'est une normalisation des idées d'une droite qui n'a plus honte de ses idées.

José Antonio Kast se presenta como un líder conservador moderado, pero su defensa del legado pinochetista revela una agenda mucho más radical. Chile se prepara para un giro político decisivo con la probable llegada de José Antonio Kast a La Moneda. Desde su militancia juvenil a favor de la continuidad de Pinochet hasta su estrategia actual centrada en seguridad y orden, Kast encarna las tensiones de un país dividido entre la nostalgia autoritaria y las demandas sociales. Analizamos su transformación política, su "melonización" estratégica y qué significaría su presidencia para Chile en un momento en que figuras aún más extremas como Johannes Kaiser y populistas como Francisco Parisi ganan terreno en el espectro político chileno. Hoy en 'No es el fin del mundo' hablamos de José Antonio Kast.

Nieves Concostrina habla de la figura de Augusto Pinochet.
In this deep-dive episode, we sit down with legendary investigative journalist and author John Dinges to discuss his acclaimed book, “Chile in Their Hearts: The Untold Story of Two Americans Who Went Missing After the Coup.” Journey back to the early 1970s, when Chile became the global epicenter for progressive hope, attracting thousands of idealistic foreigners, including young Americans, to witness Salvador Allende's democratic "revolution with red wine and empanadas." Dinges, who was there, sets the scene of this vibrant, politically charged moment. The heart of the conversation is Dinges's decades-long investigation into the fates of two such Americans—Charles Horman and Frank Teruggi—who were killed after Pinochet's brutal 1973 coup. We tackle difficult truths and enduring myths, including the 1982 Academy Award-winning film, “Missing.” Dinges reveals his startling conclusion: while the U.S. government did not directly order their deaths, it was utterly complicit in the regime's terror and the ensuing cover-up. We also explore Operation Condor, the sinister international assassination network Dinges helped expose, detailing the intimate and damning role of U.S. intelligence. This is a masterclass in investigative journalism, as Dinges explains why following the evidence—even when it contradicts your beliefs—is paramount. John Dinges is an American investigative journalist, author, and longtime chronicler of U.S. involvement in Latin America, especially during the era of military dictatorships. He began his career at the Des Moines Register & Tribune and later worked as a freelance correspondent in Latin America, serving as a special correspondent for Time, The Washington Post, and ABC Radio. Dinges worked on the foreign desk of The Washington Post and then at NPR, where he became managing editor and helped shape the network's foreign coverage.

Chile se ha proyectado como la gran excepción de América Latina, pero la sombra de Pinochet, la desigualdad y el fracaso constitucional revelan un espejismo de estabilidad. Durante décadas, Chile ha sido visto como un modelo de estabilidad en un continente marcado por crisis e inestabilidad. Sin embargo, las protestas de 2019, el doble fracaso del proceso constituyente y el auge de la derecha radical demuestran que bajo esa aparente calma persisten profundas fracturas. Desde el Gobierno de Allende y el golpe de Estado hasta la dictadura de Pinochet, el Plan Cóndor y los gobiernos democráticos, Chile oscila entre la reforma y la reacción en un péndulo que no logra resolverse. Con José Antonio Kast favorito para las próximas elecciones, el país se enfrenta a la posibilidad de un nuevo giro hacia el conservadurismo mientras mantiene la Constitución heredada de 1980. Hoy en "No es el fin del mundo" hablamos de Chile, un espejismo de estabilidad.

durée : 00:12:26 - Les Enjeux internationaux - par : Guillaume Erner - Ce dimanche au Chili, le premier tour de la présidentielle a propulsé au second tour la candidate de gauche Jeannette Jara et José Antonio Kast, figure de l'extrême droite admirateur de Pinochet, dans un scrutin très marqué par la sécurité, l'immigration. - réalisation : Félicie Faugère - invités : Pablo Barnier Docteur associé au CERI (Centre de recherches internationales)
durée : 00:10:36 - Journal de 18h - Plus de quinze millions de Chiliens sont appelés aux urnes pour désigner leur président. Le candidat ultra-conservateur José Antonio Kast, héritier autoproclamé d'Augusto Pinochet, talonne la candidate de gauche Jeannette Jara dans les sondages.
Près de 16 millions de Chiliens sont appelés à se rendre aux urnes ce dimanche (16 novembre 2025) pour élire le successeur du président sortant Gabriel Boric, auquel la Constitution interdit de briguer un second mandat consécutif. 8 candidats sont en lice, mais 2 favoris se détachent : Jeannette Jara, 51 ans, communiste et candidate d'une coalition de 9 partis de gauche et centre gauche, est en tête des sondages pour le 1er tour, talonnée par le candidat d'extrême droite José Antonio Kast, 59 ans, avocat, fondateur du parti républicain, battu il y a 4 ans par Gabriel Boric. Si ces deux favoris se retrouvent au second tour, le 14 décembre 2025, Jeannette Jara ne partira pas forcément gagnante. L'outsider Johannes Kaiser, 49 ans, fondateur du parti national libertarien, lui aussi d'extrême droite et nostalgique de la dictature militaire, pourrait bien jouer les faiseurs de rois en permettant à José Antonio Kast de l'emporter. Comment le Chili en est-il arrivé là ? Quel bilan laisse Gabriel Boric ? Le jeune président de gauche a-t-il tenu sa promesse de réduire les inégalités et d'apporter plus de justice sociale ? Comment expliquer la montée en puissance d'une extrême droite décomplexée ? Pourquoi la société chilienne n'arrive-t-elle pas à tourner la page de l'ère Pinochet au point de regretter le dictateur mort, il y a 20 ans ? Alors que l'immigration irrégulière et l'insécurité, mais aussi le narcotrafic ont été au cœur de la campagne présidentielle, le Chili risque-t-il de basculer à l'extrême droite ? 3 invités : - Franck Gaudichaud, professeur en Histoire et Études latino-américaines à l'Université Toulouse-Jean Jaurès, auteur de «Découvrir la révolution chilienne 70-73», paru en 2023 aux Éditions sociales - Olivier Compagnon, professeur d'Histoire contemporaine à l'Université Sorbonne Nouvelle/Institut des Hautes Études d'Amérique latine, chercheur au CREDA - Pablo Barnier-Khawam, docteur en Sciences Politiques associé au CERI et au CREDA, spécialiste de la Bolivie et du Chili.
Aunque su gobierno quedó marcado por el fracaso del proceso constituyente, el presidente Gabriel Boric obtuvo avances sociales y destacó en política exterior, especialmente por sus firmes posiciones en defensa de la democracia y los derechos humanos tanto en Venezuela como en Gaza, explica el analista político Guillermo Holzmann. El presidente de Chile, Gabriel Boric, terminará su mandato en marzo de 2026. La Constitución de ese país no prevé la posibilidad de reelección consecutiva del jefe de Estado. Su administración estuvo caracterizada, justamente, por el proceso constituyente para reformar la Carta Magna heredada de la época de Pinochet. Su fracaso en dos ocasiones en este propósito empañó un gobierno que, desde el comienzo, aspiraba a concretar varias transformaciones después de realizar esa reforma. Guillermo Holzmann, analista político y académico de la Universidad de Chile, considera que esa derrota marcó los cuatro años de Boric. "Primero, Boric fundó todos sus proyectos políticos en la aprobación de una nueva Constitución. Esto finalmente no sucede. Segundo, nunca tuvo la capacidad para avanzar en los acuerdos legislativos necesarios que permitiesen impulsar una segunda transición". El balance de su administración, sin embargo, va mucho más allá de las aspiraciones constitucionales. A pesar de todo, Boric se apuntó algunos logros en el frente social, aunque muy lejos de su primera agenda. "Boric también logra avances sociales importantes, como las 40 horas laborales. Hay cambios en la legislación para permitir la inclusión laboral de todos aquellos que tienen diversos puntos de vista sexual, capacidades, etc. También en la defensa de los derechos de los trabajadores, así como una reforma de las pensiones que, aunque no fue lo que él quería, finalmente establece nuevos parámetros respecto del salario mínimo y de qué manera el Estado debe desempeñar un rol solidario a partir del aporte de los propios empresarios". Boric no reconoció la elección de Maduro En el balance económico, Holzmann señala las acusaciones de corrupción y un crecimiento bajo del PIB que, según afirma, depende de un gasto público muy elevado. En el plano internacional, el analista destaca las firmes posiciones del presidente saliente en defensa de los derechos humanos. "Probablemente, en lo que más se destacó el mandato de Boric fue en el rol que desempeñó a nivel internacional en la defensa de la democracia y los derechos humanos. Estos puntos se convirtieron en los dos pilares que lo llevaron a criticar la elección de Maduro. Boric, en efecto, no reconoció la elección de Maduro en el proceso electoral del año pasado. En cuanto a los derechos humanos, esto se ve claramente en la posición de Chile sobre Gaza". Durante la 79ª Asamblea General de la ONU, Boric afirmó: "Me niego a elegir entre el terrorismo de Hamás o la masacre y conducta genocida del Israel de Netanyahu. No tenemos por qué elegir entre barbaries. Yo elijo la humanidad". En el plano doméstico, Holzmann también recuerda las dificultades en materia de seguridad y el uso del estado de excepción para desplegar a las Fuerzas Armadas en el norte de Chile para controlar la inmigración y, en el sur, para detener la acción de grupos violentos.
In recent weeks, the U.S. has bombed multiple alleged Venezuelan “drug boats” at sea, killing at least 21 people without providing any clear evidence that they were involved in drug trafficking or linked to the government in Caracas. The U.S. has also increased its military footprint in the Caribbean and placed a $50 million bounty on President Nicolás Maduro for information leading to his arrest for narcotrafficking. This is part of the Trump administration's plan to destablize Venezuela and dominate the region. In our latest, we talk with Dr. Rodrigo Acuña about Trump's war on Venezuela. We also discuss his new film "Venezuela:The Cost of Challenging Empire."Bio//Rodrigo Acuña (@rodrigoac7) works as an independent journalist on Latin America and for the NSW Department of Education. He has been writing on Latin American politics for close to twenty years. He has recently produced the new documentary "Venezuela: The Cost of Challenging Empire" with journalist Nic Ford. ——

On today's episode, Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sits down with Philippe Sands, a professor of law at the University of London and the Samuel Pisar Visiting Professor at Harvard Law School to discuss his new book, “38 Londres Street: On Impunity, Pinochet in England, and a Nazi in Patagonia.”They discuss the intertwined stories of Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet and Nazi SS commander Walther Rauff, his uncanny personal connections to those stories, how Pinochet's arrest and the subsequent legal battle over his extradition changed international criminal law, and how writing the book informed his thinking on the U.S. Supreme Court's immunity ruling in Trump v.
