El quiebre de las ciencias sociales en Chile. Testimonios y repercusiones del 11 de septiembre de 1973 en documentos de la Fundación Ford

Abstract

This article examines, from the documents of the agents of the Ford Foundation, the immediate consequences and repercussions that the Coup d'Etat of 11 September 1973 had on the social sciences in Chile. With this, it will be observed the implementation of the strategy of disarticulation of these disciplines undertaken by the civic-military dictatorship; different voices from officials of the Ford Foundation and university professors will be heard on this fact; and witness the forging of a new historical scenario that shore up the take-off neoliberal thinking.
