Chile at a Crossroads: The Coming Constitutional and Political Changes

​This seminar will be given by Rodrigo Vergara, M-RCBG research fellow and former Governor of the Central Bank of Chile (2011 and 2016).

After many years of economic success, Chile is facing a social and political crisis. A vast majority of the population voted for a new Constitution. In addition, the political map has changed significantly in a context of the upcoming general elections. The way this process is conducted will largely determine whether Chile finds its path toward becoming a developed economy or turns into yet another case of frustrated development in Latin America.
