A bold project for change unfolded in Latin America at the beginning of the 1970s. After an electoral victory in Chile, the socialist government led by Salvador Allende and his governing coalition, Unidad Popular, embarked on a mission to bring about a socialist revolution through existing democratic institutions to address the most pressing needs of the Chilean people. The result was an unprecedented alliance of socialism, democracy and design.

Fifty years after the civil-military coup d'état that put an end to democracy in Chile, and with it these deign initiatives, the book provides a reminder of Latin America's transformative capacity and a source for reflection and creative inspiration.
