1988 elections

I think it not fair to assume Pinochet wasn´t going to accept the 88 elections, and that what you have lightly done having a long section of mostly base-less guessing why he decided to accept the results. And all that of "worldwide context" is too long. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Viva Chile (talk • contribs) 16:08, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article should be only about the transition - 2000s is not transition anymore! Other information should be in History of Chile (1990-). Luis Napoles (talk) 20:40, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I will move the article to History of Chile (1991-), similar to History of Chile during the Parliamentary Era (1891-1925).Luis Napoles (talk) 20:43, 9 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No. I don't think it should...The current lead starts by saying

The Chilean transition to democracy (colloquially known in Chile as the Transición) began on September 11, 1980, when a Constitution establishing a transition itinerary was approved in a plebiscite. From March 11, 1981 to March 11, 1990, several organic constitutional laws were approved leading to the final restoration of democracy.

Clearly going back way before 1990.

Then this article should be split. 2000s is not transition anymore.Luis Napoles (talk) 17:08, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The 'Contexs and Causes' section

I think that section is too leftist to be considered neutral. It is also too long, talking about the South America as a whole while this article should only be about the chilean transition. Please and a Template:Neutral if you concur.

5 years outdated

This article is 5 years outdated, since 2007 to 2011. Many things have happened since then, and lost of superficial thing are written here instead of core socio political issues.--190.101.78.192 (talk) 02:48, 30 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

this stub should read a transition BACK to democracy as Chile had been forming democracy for 200 years until the coup d'tat (see eduardo galenao, particio guzman)
