Los Luksic: Tres generaciones de una de las familias más poderosas de Chile

Power is inherited, negotiated, and contested. This is the story of the Luksic family. The new investigation by Sergio Jara Román. The Luksic Family is a chronicle that reveals, with access to previously unpublished sources and unknown documents, the story behind Chile's most powerful economic group. Sergio Jara reconstructs the rise of the Luksic family from its origins in the north, through Croatian immigration, its early mining ventures, and Andrónico Luksic Abaroa's audacity in negotiating with all political factions, from Allende to the dictatorship and the Concertación coalition. The book dissects little-known episodes, business alliances and breakups, and the construction of an empire that today encompasses everything from banking and mining to luxury hotels in Europe. Through rigorous research and firsthand accounts, Sergio Jara connects the story of a family with major political and economic processes in Chile: the nationalization and privatization of companies, their relationships with presidents and dictators, and the consolidation of an economic model where large corporations define the country's course. #luksic #andronico #chile #chileannews #news
