Colonia Dignidad: Timeline

<p>This document is one of the results of the author’s research project “The Performative Realm of ‘Colonia Dignidad,’ a German Enclave in Chile, in Historical and Political Contexts” (<em>Performatywna strefa „Kolonii Godności”, niemieckiej enklawy w Chile, w kontekście historycznym i politycznym</em>), financed by grant no. 2021/43/B/HS2/00360 from the National Science Centre (<em>Narodowe Centrum Nauki</em>, NCN) under its OPUS 22 Programme.</p><p>This timeline contains not only facts from the history of <em>Colonia Dignidad</em>, but also selected events from the history of <span style="color:black;background-color:white">Chile, Germany and the world that influenced many of the activities of t</span>he group or provided a contextual background for them. The chronologies of <em>Colonia Dignidad</em> available in Chilean and German studies were useful reference points, but due to the different purposes of these volumes, they are necessarily concise and contain data only up to the date of their publication. This document was conceived as a research tool to outline the area of investigation and set priorities. Thus, events related to the performative realm of <em>Colonia Dignidad</em> have been prioritised. Nevertheless, it is hoped that this timeline may prove valuable in research on other aspects of the multifaceted phenomenon of the German enclave in Chile.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p>
