Nuestra hipótesis es que en el caso chileno la modernización económica era condición para la despolitización social, la redefinición de la política y la construcción de una nueva “democracia”. La regionalización permitía escalonar la participación, centralizando las decisiones importantes en el nivel nacional y regional, relegando la incorporación ciudadana al último nivel, el escalón comunal. La “democracia” pinochetista sería comunal.

This article explores the regionalization process promoted by General Augusto Pinochet’s dictatorship towards the end of the ‘70s. According to our hypothesis, economic modernization was a precondition for Chile’s social depoliticization, the redefinition of politics, and the making of a new “democracy”. Regionalization allowed a staggered participation, where the most important decisions were centralized at a national or regional level, while grassroots citizen activity remained relegated to the lowest rung, the local level.
