The Chilean coup d'état of September 11, 1973 was a watershed event in the history of Chile and the Cold War.
In Chile's 1970presidentialelection, in accordance with the constitution, Congress resolved the 3-way split — between Salvador Allende (with 36.3% of the vote), conservative (and former president) Jorge Alessandri Rodríguez (35.8%), and the Christian Democrat Radomiro Tomic (27.9%) — by voting to approve Allende's narrow plurality.
The majority of the Chilean population were at the lower end of the socioeconomic spectrum and had grown weary of perennial problems that were affecting the country.
While Lagos's nomination as the Concertacion's candidate in the 2000 presidentialelection put the Socialists at the head of the coalition, the candidate took pains to distance himself from the legacy of the Popular Unity.
That was, however, to be the zenith of the "Chilean road." The Popular Unity's remaining years were marked by deepening political conflict, social polarization, and economic crisis.
Chilean capitalists were little inclined to invest for an uncertain future in the new Chile.
