This episode is a reading of an article by two Chilean socialists from the Revolutionary Socialist Party (PTR), Pablo Torres and Dauno Totoro, about the CIA-backed military coup in Chile in 1973. Salvador Allende’s election was the most radical attempt to achieve socialism through elections and gradual reforms. This article, titled “Chile 1973: Was victory possible?” examines what was behind the coup, the lead-up to Allende's overthrow, and what the lessons are for the Left.
