Brian Doherty has an interesting piece up at Reason on Milton Friedman's advice to Pinochet's regime. A taste:

Undoubtedly, Friedman's decision to interact with officials of repressive governments creates uncomfortable tensions for his libertarian admirers; I could, and often do, wish he hadn't done it. But given what it probably meant for economic wealth and liberty in the long term for the people of Chile, that's a selfish reaction.
