Salvador Allende (1908 - 1973)

His government nationalized key industries, wining the enmity of Chile's bourgeoisie and the US, who overthrew him in a bloody coup.

Luis Vitale (1927 - 2010)
Historian and writer. Founding member of the Chilean MIR. Tortured and exiled by Pinochet. He worked with sections of the IV International while in exile in European and South American countries.
