This volume contains the most comprehensive collection of Chilean statistics ever published and deals with central government, general government, and public sector data in the period from 1800 to 1988. Consisting of five major sections, the study provides a systematic and up-to-date presentation, description, and methodological analysis of 498 tables of statistics and related qualitative evidence on all aspects of Chilean government. No comparable collection of public sector statistics exists at present, and many of the statistics found in this thoroughly researched study have not been previously published or are not easily available elsewhere. The book includes an in-depth analysis of the nature, structure, and impact of the Chilean central government, general government, and public sector. It offers a penetrating look at the relationship between public sector revenues and expenditures, and the production of collective, semi-public, and private commodities and their components.

This extraordinarily detailed reference outlines the role of the Chilean State in shaping the development and expected return of Chile to democracy. It clarifies the factors that contributed to Chile's decline under Allende; it outlines the neo-liberal policies of Pinochet; and it discusses the revolution in peace of Eduardo Frei. This work will be an invaluable addition in the study of South America, Chilean history, government, politics, and economics.

?Drawing upon his vast personal knowledge of myriad Chilean statistical sources and upon the able assistance of several generations of graduate students, Mamalakis offers scholars the raw materials for assessing the economic and, to a large extent, the social history of this most fascinating country. Mamalakis has been compiling statistics on Chile since 1964. . . . The present volume is more than a compendium of statistics (498 tables) on the public sector and government services; it includes a number of brief essays on related subjects, as well as an exposition of Mamalakis's theory of services . . . the statistical compilation is of enduring value and scholars of Chile's development will be in Mamalakis's debt.
