Overcoming poverty in Chile during the first year of the Sebastián Piñera government
Abstract
first year of the Sebastian Piñera government are analyzed. It is argued that the former government implemented a series of welfare-type social policies focused on reducing extreme poverty, while the current government took on this long term strategy without seeming to engage in discussions about new poverty-reduction policies. Indeed, President Piñera has hinted at deepening the welfare-type nature of poverty reduction, while improving on specific aspects deemed unsatisfactory.
