		But now Chile is enjoying newfound democracy and economic growth, and the Chilean president, Eduardo Frei, is in Washington to discuss a possible trade deal with the United States.
		Chile's strong record of reform, good government, and sound fiscal policies make it an excellent candidate for the first use of such authority.
		Chile's transition from dictatorship to democracy has been relatively smooth, in large part because Frei's Christian Democrats and their opponents to the left have agreed not to tamper with Pinochet's free market reforms.

	Peter M. Siavelis: The President and Congress in Postauthoritarian Chile
		One concern has to do with the institutional arrangements for governing bequeathed to the new democratic regimes by their authoritarian predecessors and with the related issue of whether presidential or parliamentary systems work better for the consolidation of democracy.
		In this book, Peter Siavelis takes a close look at the important case of Chile, which had a long tradition of successful legislative resolution of conflict but was left by the Pinochet regime with a changed institutional framework that greatly strengthened the presidency at the expense of the legislature.
		Weakening of the legislature combined with an exclusionary electoral system, Siavelis argues, undermines the ability of Chile's National Congress to play its former role as an arena of accommodation, creating serious obstacles to interbranch cooperation and, ultimately, democratic governability.
