      abstract = {The structural adjustment programs of these three  countries, like those of many others throughout the world  in recent years, have greatly changed previous balances  between the state and the private sector, capital and  labor, and domestic versus world market influences on the  economy. This article examines some of the consequences of  these changes for questions of poverty and income  distribution and for questions of autonomy. The Chilean  experience is discussed in terms of three different  variants, or models, all within the basic open-economy  orientation. Of these, the first had particularly negative  consequences in the dimensions examined, the second gave  more positive results, and the third improved on the  second. Mexico and Peru have been following models similar  to the first, the most costly, of the variants used in  Chile. This path can be seen as the one closest to the full  logic of the new orientation but it is also one that is  unnecessarily adverse for equality and for autonomy.},
