Overview
El 11 de septiembre de 1973, Salvador Allende se convirtió en un mito.
El bombardeo de La Moneda, la belleza y el dramatismo de sus últimas palabras y su sacrificio en defensa del desarrollo democrático de Chile, así como la ominosa dictadura que se instauró en el país otorgaron a su nombre una dimensión universal. A cincuenta años de aquellos hechos que conmovieron al mundo, esta biografía va más allá del mito, puesto que, con la agilidad del periodista y el rigor del historiador, Mario Amorós relata de manera minuciosa su trayectoria política y traza una cuidada semblanza humana.
A lo largo de estas páginas descubrimos sus raíces familiares y conocemos al muchacho que de la mano de un carpintero anarquista se aproximó a las ideas emancipatorias; al médico de vocación social que participó en la fundación y expansión del Partido Socialista; al diputado y senador que promovió una legislación avanzada; al líder que unió a la izquierda; al revolucionario que preconizó el socialismo «en democracia, pluralismo y libertad». Y al presidente de la República que durante aquellos mil días nacionalizó el cobre, acabó con el latifundio e impulsó la participación popular y grandes transformaciones democráticas.
Medio siglo después del golpe de Estado, los valores y las causas de Allende están vigentes y mantienen viva su figura en Chile y en el mundo.
ENGISH DESCRIPTION
On September 11, 1973, Salvador Allende became a myth.
The bombing of La Moneda, the beauty and drama of his last words, and his sacrifice in defense of Chile's democratic development, along with the ominous dictatorship that was established in the country, gave his name universal dimensions. Fifty years after those events that shook the world, this biography goes beyond the myth. With the agility of a journalist and the rigor of a historian, Mario Amorós meticulously recounts Allende's political trajectory and paints a carefully crafted human portrait.
Throughout these pages, we discover his family roots and meet the young man who, guided by an anarchist carpenter, embraced emancipatory ideas. We encounter the socially conscious doctor who participated in the founding and expansion of the Socialist Party, the representative and senator who advocated for progressive legislation, the leader who united the left, and the revolutionary who championed socialism "in democracy, pluralism, and freedom." We also get to know the president who, during those one thousand days, nationalized copper, ended large landholdings, and promoted popular participation and significant democratic transformations.
Half a century after the coup d'état, Allende's values and causes remain relevant and keep his figure alive in Chile and around the world.
