Freedoms denied to the people when a democracy is overthrown by the military are so many. In 1973, a military rule or a non-democratic government was established in Chile by General Augusto Pinochet while in Poland, there was a non-democratic government led by General Jeruzelski before 1989. In both these cases the people were denied the following freedoms when they did not have democracies:

  • The people had no 'right to freedom of speech' as was the case with the women of Calama in Chile.
  • The people had no 'right to from associations or trade unions' as was the case with the workers like a crane operator and an n electrician in Poland.
  • In Poland thousands of Solidarity members were put in prison. Freedom to organize, protest and express opinions were taken away.
  • In Chile more than three thousand people were killed by the military. The life of the people was at the mercy of the ruler.
  • The people had no 'right to have free elections' as was the case in Poland before the dawn of democracy there.
  • It was because of the above reasons i.e. no freedom of expression, no freedom of forming their own Trade Unions, no right to have free elections, socio-economic inequality and lack of security of life that the people liked to have change in their dictatorial government.
