Description
En la actualidad, cuando una ola reaccionaria recorre el planeta y diferentes voces en distintos países lo reivindican, esta biografía de Augusto Pinochet se vuelve más urgente que nunca. El general Augusto Pinochet integra el panteón de las personalidades más siniestras de la historia. No solo en Chile, donde su régimen se cobró la vida de miles de personas, torturó a tantas otras y destruyó la democracia republicana, sino también a nivel mundial. El golpe de Estado del 11 de septiembre de 1973 que derrocó al presidente Salvador Allende y su posterior dictadura, que se prolongó hasta 1990; la imposición feroz de los principios del neoliberalismo a partir de 1975 y su alto costo en desempleo y hambre, y su detención en Londres en 1998 a petición del juez Baltasar Garzón, fundada en la jurisdicción universal frente a los crímenes de lesa humanidad, lo transforman en un personaje ineludible cuya figura regresa cada cierto tiempo. Amorós, apoyándose en una amplísima documentación inédita, reconstruye la infancia de Pinochet y su vida familiar, relata al detalle su larga trayectoria militar, y desvela episodios ocultos como su participación en la masonería; examina su papel durante el gobierno de Allende y en las horas dramáticas del golpe de Estado, y perfila su ambición de poder, que lo llevó a erigir un régimen que, a partir del terror, refundó Chile desde sus cimientos.
