New Chile. 1973. 208 pages.

NACLA began in 1966 and quickly became one of the most important research organizations to emerge out of the U.S. student movement. Through the mid-seventies their publications concentrated on the role of U.S. corporations and foreign policy in Latin America, with special emphasis on U.S. universities, development policy, police training, and CIA covert activities. Reports were well-researched, with more facts than analysis.

New Chile is an objective pre-coup analysis of the successes and failures of Allende's socialism. The lines are drawn between the old order and the new hope, with sobering sections on remaining obstacles: U.S. police aid, the U.S. economic boycott, the Chilean right. It all came tumbling down in September, 1973.
