Abstract

The present work intends to evaluate the impact the coup d’état –occurred in Chile on September 11th, 1973- had on the intellectual and political reflection, in a specific moment of Late Francoism. For this, it will be necessary to establish some methodological criteria, explicitly state the conditions for the potential critic opinion in Spain in late 1973, and finally, select some reflections expressed by some intellectuals immediately after the events, focusing on the social and political trajectory of those who intervened. In consequence, the present work will address three aspects: what is said in relation to the historical event, the historical and political environment at that time, and the sociological profile of those giving their opinion. The point where text, context and social trajectory intersect will be the point our conclusions will be based on.
