	Remembering Allende
		Allende is widely remembered only as a victim-of the Chilean counterrevolution, of the vast US covert destabilization program and ultimately of what some argue was his own peaceful strategy.
		Allende saw a third way-in no way to be confused with Tony Blair's self-declared middle path between corporate free markets and social democracy, but rather an authentically socialist and democratic alternative to meek social reform, on the one hand, and authoritarian 'people's democracies"-Stalinist dictatorships- on the other.
		Allende had to repeat to Debray several times that the new Chilean government, coming to power democratically, would both respect and enhance democracy while not shying away from radical, socialist reform.

	Amazon.ca: Zorro: Books: Isabel Allende (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Allende seems to be having much scholarly fun writing her post-colonial variation on machismo heroics; her Zorro takes his name-Spanish for “fox”-from the animal that appears as his spirit guide during an Indian initiation ceremony.
		Allende’s challenge is to balance her portrait of a romantic avenging hero with what we now know of the cruel realities of the time.
		Allende never fails to emphasize the suffering of colonized indigenous peoples during this period, while offering some heroic native figures-grandmother White Owl and her daughter (Diego’s mother) are both shamans-as figures of hope.

		Allende was placed in charge of all military forces and Hidalgo was demoted from overall leader of the rebellion to civilian chief in charge of political affairs.

	Essay - MORAL CHAOS
		That was done, in all important respects, by the man he ousted, Salvador Allende, who narrowly won the presidency with 36% of a three way vote and the confirmation of a fair-minded Congress, aware that he had run unsuccessfully on three previous occasions.

	Chile's Socialists Speak Frankly
		It is probably appropriate that on the 30th anniversary of the coup that deposed Salvador Allende, Chile's president should wax romantically on his late predecessor at the head of the country's socialist party.
		Nobody should suggest that General Pinochet was a hero or a saviour or a choirboy, but it cannot be denied that at least the army he belonged to figured that the experience of the aforementioned "utopians" was not worth the risk in Chile.
		And Allende's 36.3% win is pretty close to the 37.3% of the vote that put the Nazis in power in 1932.

		As in Greek tragedy or a fairy tale, the mother was summoned to her daughter's side on the eve of calamity, and she was not to be spared a scintilla of the fate that befell her daughter.
		It is a tribute to Isabel Allende that her memoir transcends the limitations of its genre and finally approaches the unsparing intensity and austerity of Greek tragedy.
		Critics of Isabel Allende point to a willful, self-aggrandizing vein in her novels, where an overbearing "Yo" is thinly disguised in characters who are projections of her ego, and who are not allowed to develop an identity independent of the author's.

	Allende meteorite
		A meteorite of the type known as a carbonaceous chondrite, which fell near the village of Pueblito de Allende, in the Mexican state of Chihuahua, on Feb. 8, 1969.
		Irradiation of the chondrules, it seems, happened after they had solidified but before the cold accretion of matter that took place during the early stages of formation of the solar system, when the parent meteorite came together.
		The Allende meteorite also contains fine-grained, microscopic diamonds with strange isotopic signatures that point to an extrasolar origin; these interstellar grains are older than the Solar System and probably the product of a nearby supernova.
