Four years after the rejection of the constitutional proposal in Chile, self-criticism from former convention members remains lacking. Rosario Corvalán examines statements from Fernando Atria and Jaime Bassa, criticizing their tendency to blame external factors – such as disinformation, media coverage, and the speed of the process – for the Convention’s failure. The author argues that a thorough review of the decisions and content of the failed project is necessary. Without such introspection, she suggests, the possibility remains that these same individuals may attempt a similar endeavor again. The piece highlights a concern that a lack of internal accountability hinders meaningful progress. Corvalán’s analysis points to a need for honest assessment to avoid repeating past mistakes within Chile’s political landscape.
