Was the golden age times of military dictatorships?

The term "golden age" can refer to various historical periods, often characterized by economic growth, cultural flourishing, or political stability. In some contexts, such as certain Latin American countries during the mid-20th century, military dictatorships were seen as providing order and economic development, leading some to label those times as a "golden age." However, this perspective is contentious, as these regimes often suppressed civil liberties and human rights, leading to significant social and political turmoil. Therefore, whether these periods are viewed as a "golden age" depends largely on one's perspective and the specific context.
