The first major history of Chile's most significant peasant rebellion and the violent repression that followedR?nquil explores the 1934 revolt of peasants against Chile's oligarchic political order and the brutal military counterinsurgency that ended the rebellion. Thomas Miller Klubock exposes the country's history of political violence and authoritarianism and chronicles peasant movements to build a more just and freer society. Klubock further demonstrates that repression in the countryside and the historical amnesia or olvido surrounding political violence produced by amnesties lie at the foundation of Chile's democratic political traditions and enduring social inequalities.
