80`s 90`s or 00`s?

 Chilean society has passed through many changes in the last decades that involve many areas, culture, music, customs, political changes and one that it is very controversial these days: EDUCATION, So I would like to do a brief comment about eache decade form 80`s,90`s and the past decade

First of all in the 80`s  (I`m not gonna write about the obvious thing that was happening back then in our government...) things were very different, the education was going through a big change from being gratuitous to start paying, the music that used to be heard was mainly latin rock, like Virus, Los Prisioneros, etc. And what I think is the most dramatic and drastic thing of all was the curfew, wich time was variable (6, 10, 12 PM) wich I think it was a very hard way to maintain the control of the people.

Then, in the 90's our country was coming back to normal, with the return of the democracy when the NO won in the voting and with the subsequent election of the president Patricio Aylwin. Now the music was very diversified, the were a lot of new genres, like grunge (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains), rock (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Oasis, Smashing Pumpkins, U2, Manu Chau)and pop music (with the king and the queen of the pop, Michael Jackson and Madonna, the Backstreet boys, the Spice Girls, Hanson) among others (Bjork, RATM, etc). Music became a big industry both nationally and internationally. In TV the shows Clueless and The Fresh Prince of Bel-.Air were trendy. And the mini skirts were very popular!

And finally the last decade, in the earliest 2000`s came a very particular trend, the “axe” wich caused excitement among the young people, these trend passed really quick, but it was huge, jaja. Then came the reggeaton, wich continues nowadays. But now there are even more styles and genres of music than before! It`s a really big industry!
And for what it has to do with the society, the first woman president elected in Latin America, Michelle Bachellet.
And about education matters… I have nothing to say :)


PS: I LOVE 90`S!
