It was a turning point. The opposition went on to win the plebiscite, ushering in Chile stransition to democracy. Mr Lagos would become a minister in the first two democraticgovernments, and was elected Chile s president in 2000. By far the most interesting andmoving part of his memoir concerns his patient and difficult work to build opposition to thedictatorship.
这是一个转折点。反对派接着赢得了全民公投,迎来智利向民主的过渡。拉各斯成为前两届民主政府的部长,2000年他当选为智利总统。迄今为止,他的回忆录中最有趣最感动人心的部分是他极具耐心又历尽艰难地建立了反对独裁的在野党。
After Pinochet overthrew the elected far-left government of Salvador Allende, almost 3,000people were murdered or disappeared, 29,000 were imprisoned and some 200,000 sought refuge abroad. Mr Lagos, an academic economist, wasan adviser to the Allende government but not a member of it. After the coup, he taught inthe United States, before returning to Chile in 1978. He played a prominent role in coaxinginto existence a broad centre-left front, called the Concertacin. He disagreed with the far-leftover its refusal to rule out violence against the regime. That didn t spare him from beingdetained for 18 days after a failed assassination attempt against Pinochet by communists.
皮诺切特推翻了极左的民选萨尔瓦多阿连德政府之后,有近3000人被杀害或失踪,29000人被监禁,几乎所有被监禁的人都受到了折磨,还有大约20万人到国外避难。理论经济学家拉各斯是阿连德政府的顾问,不是政府成员。政变后他在美国任教,直到1978年才回到智利。争取民主联盟是智利明显中间偏左的阵线,拉各斯在耐心成立它的过程中发挥了突出作用。他不赞成极左派采取暴力抵抗政权。共产党人企图暗杀皮诺切特失败后,这点并未让他免于十八天的拘留。
