## About this book

Angela Vergara explores the complex history of the Chilean labor movement in Copper Workers, International Business, and Domestic Politics in Cold. This historical study examines the experiences of miners working for the multinational corporation Anaconda during the influential Cold War era. By utilizing archival sources and oral histories, Vergara details the economic and social struggles of workers over a forty-five-year period. The text analyzes how these labor movements acted as progressive forces that drove national reforms and political radicalization across South America.

This academic work falls within the categories of political science, sociology, and Latin American history. It traces the expansion of the welfare state in the 1950s and the subsequent shift toward the neoliberal policies associated with the Chicago boys. Copper Workers, International Business, and Domestic Politics in Cold provides a deep look into labor and industrial relations, the erosion of worker rights, and the evolution of the Chilean economic model.
