  • Social protection in Chile: reforms to improve equity Carmelo Mesa-Lago At the beginning of the 1980s, Chile pioneered the implementation in Latin America of structural reforms that fully or partially privatized pensions, health-care and social assistance systems. Implemented without prior social dialogue, these reforms – which subsequently influenced similar reforms in other countries of the region and elsewhere – led to reduced social solidarity and equity and intensified poverty and inequality. Over the past 18 years, however, democratic governments have corrected many design faults in the original reforms. The author examines the progress achieved and areas of persistent social inequality in terms of coverage, gender balance and funding, and identifies future challenges. 10.1111/j.1564-913X.2008.00041.x DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1564-913X.2008.00041.x publication.journalArticle
