Abstract

The principal objective of this article is to explain the change in political ideas, between 1976 and 1990 of the leading group of intellectuals that led the first democratic Chilean government's economic team after the last civil-military dictatorship. More specifically, we will focus on Alejandro Foxely, founder and president of the independent academic center CIEPLAN. We propose a documental and historiographic analysis to comprehend that the decisions that favored a stable democracy and the maintenance of a neoliberal model were also played in the field of international philanthropic domination. The results show that the interests of the Ford Foundation regarding to Chile and CIEPLAN were to supervise a technocratic vision of democracy and the insertion of this country in the world economic system.
