Talk:Socialist Party of Chile

Grammatical edits
I've corrected the grammar in most of the sections (excepting the PS under Pinochet), but am unsure whether in doing so I have changed the meaning of some of the sentences. If someone who knows the subject, rather than an obsessive grammar monkey, could check it, I'd be very thankful. 82.19.177.65 (talk) 12:35, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Italic text
 * ...assassinated president Salvador Allende

Accounts of his death vary. Some say he committed suicide with a rifle rather than fighting against the coup. Unless the Salvador Allende states unequivocally that he was assassinated, other articles shouldn't assert it as if it were an established fact. --Uncle Ed 12:57, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Lagos: PPD
Lagos is a member of the PPD, not the PS. The PPD are the "reformed" Socialists who were grouped around a headquarters organization in Paris during the Pinochet dictatorship. The PS was led by Miguel Almeida from a headquarters in East Berlin. I'll fix this by this weekend if no one else has started it. glasperlenspiel 07:38, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Lagos is actually a member of both parties and his party affiliation is often written as PS/PPD. It may be incorrect to say he was elected as a member of the Socialist Party, but I'm not certain. Eliot 17:48, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Allende: suicide
The suicide theory has become a matter of consensus in Chile. Ariel Dorfman is one of many noted Chilean leftists who have come to accept it (see his memoir Heading Southward, Looking Northward). in the 1970s many people, particularly political exiles, denied the suicide theory because it felt shameful to them, since they had been totally defeated within Chile by force. Today few people in Chile defend the assassination theory. But then, La Moneda was bombed by Chilean Air Force jets. Pinochet and the plotters didn't directly murder him, but his death was absolutely a consequence of the coup.glasperlenspiel 07:38, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
