The Republic Betrayed

By: Díaz Godoy, Vicente Eduardo

This book is a profound plea against one of the most persistent and corrosive forms of corruption in Chile: nepotism. Beyond bribes or media scandals, nepotism acts in silence, disguised as trust, affection and loyalty, but in reality it constitutes a structural cancer that transforms the State into the spoils of family and partisan clans. Throughout his chapters, the author denounces how this practice has colonized municipalities, regional governments, ministries, Congress and state companies, creating incompetence, weakening institutions, diverting resources and generating inequality. Nepotism not only steals money: it steals the future, destroys citizen confidence and feeds the frustration that opens the door to populism and political violence.
