Issue and Opponent: The fact that citizens began resorting to the black market as a means of sustenance, women took empty pots and beat them to symbolize the lack of food they contained. There are several reasons why the regime was unable to respond to the challenges. It was already understood that the Allende regime was deeply unpopular because of its socialist policies and Salvador Allende’s inability to meet his campaign promises. Given that he was democratically elected, Allende could not meet his protestors with violence and could only end the protest through legitimate means. He attempted to fix the food shortages in Chile for the duration of his term, however, he failed to introduce any new measures. Dilemma Action: The act of “Cacerolazo” is a form of protest, where protesting citizens used the concept of “noise” as a means of delivering their campaign. This would include creating noisy disturbances through the banging of pots, pans, kettles, and other kitchen utensils. Though the Cacerolazo (known as a charivari) was first practiced in 1832 in protest of Louis Philippe I of France and his monarchy, the modern iteration was introduced in 1971 in Chile as a protest against Salvador Allende and his government. Citizens sought to speak out against the widespread hunger brought upon by the regime by marching through the streets of Santiago banging empty pans, kettles, and stew pots with spoons to create noise and disturbance. The action was taken primarily by women. Outcome: Salvador Allende was forced to attempt to address the concerns of his citizens as a result of the Cacerolazo protests. Yet, he was unable to fix the food shortage problems adequately and was upstaged in a military coup led by Augusto Pinochet in 1973 as a result of his failure. It is for this reason that we may suggest that the Chilean Cacerolazo was successful in creating regime change. The Chilian Cacerolazo in 1971 was part of a larger movement to remove Salvador Allende from the government due to his socialist leadership and policies.
