General '''Augusto José Ramón Pinochet Ugarte''' (1915–2006) was a [[Chile]]an [[general]] who became Chile's head of state (or leader) from 1973 to 1990. He came to power as a member of a council of military leaders after the overthrow of the [[communism|communist]] government of President [[Salvador Allende]]. Pinochet is credited with restoring the [[free market]] and prosperity to Chile after hardship under communism. [[Leftist]]s hated Pinochet for his [[conservative]] policies, to the point of wrongly imprisoning him in [[England]] on political charges long after Pinochet had relinquished power. He was ultimately released.
