GAMBOA, RICARDO  y  SEGOVIA, CAROLINA. Chile 2015: Polítical Failure, Distrust and Reform. Rev. cienc. polít. (Santiago) [online]. 2016, vol.36, n.1, pp.123-144. ISSN 0718-090X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0718-090X2016000100006.

This article describes and analyzes the political process during Michelle Bachelet's second year in government. As it will be shown, the year 2015 was marked by the emergence of important cases of political and economic corruption, deep deficits in the political leadership of government and political coalitions, and a pronounced decline of trust in main political actors. Nevertheless, important legislative changes occurred that modified political institutions and improved social and political rights.

Palabras clave : Chile; corruption; distrust; political reform.
