Very large sections of this article seem to be have been lifted wholesale from a book. Exhibit A - the almost complete lack on in-text citations. Exhibit B - the presence of "(see Glossary)" in the text, an obvious clue that the poster didn't even edit the stolen material. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.242.124.25 (talk) 00:25, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The period during and after Pinochet's coup is referred to as "benign neglect" of the economy. So, not only was this lifted from a book, but one clearly in favor of the Monetarist shock therapy that followed. J1.grammar natz (talk) 23:19, 14 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The text is from the Country Studies Program and appears to be in the public domain. GetsEclectic (talk) 08:33, 19 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

1972 section

This section has a lot of unverified and speculative information. It also fails to fully discuss the negative impact that the U.S. had on the Chilean economy during this period. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.170.104.81 (talk) 11:28, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Causes of the War of the Pacific

Hi Dentren, I never deleted Salazar's view as you wrote in the summary. They were and are again there. I added three other reasons given by historians and the rebuke of Salazar's also given by other historians. Why did you delete the other three reasons of the war?. Why did you delete the rebuke of S's allegations? . Why do you want the reader doesn't learn about it?--Keysanger (talk) 23:06, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I repeat: No material has been deleted. Material has been added by me and deleted by you. Please explain it why. --Keysanger (talk) 01:25, 8 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You have re-writen the whole section in the same style as War of the Pacific. These are very different articles. This one is about economics and need to remain so. There is no need or space to detail the exact causes of the War of the Pacific. What is needed here is compact acount on the events and interpretations around Chile's transition toward a saltpetre economy. Clearly this edit fails to do so and as so need to be either reversed or completely rewriten. Moreeover it is replicate of War of the Pacific. I don't want to be overly negative but the edit suffers from another problem: it has destroyed the prose and flow in the article and presents things in a list of points. Well sumarizing, until that edit the article was quite balanced in its content and its depth (I'm happy the article has so far not become a battlefield for right-wing and left-wing economic "truths").
