ABSTRACT
Implementation of the economic model affected many sectors that had initially supported the military government but gradually became dissatisfied with the continual blocking of their claims and demands. In terms of content, regulations attempting to transfer the principles of market competition to new spheres tended to converge with norms derived from military currents. Institutionalizing at the level of society succeeds to the extent that it manages to create a new order with its own mechanisms of reproduction, one in which the various sectors participating submit to its impositions. The political model to which the military regime seems to aspire combines a critical vision of recent national history with a particular conception of theory or political philosophy. The projects radical departure from the "compromise state" and the regime that prevailed in Chile until 1973 is that it makes no attempt to base regime stability on consensus via the political party system.
