| Sumario: | This article analyzes the Chilean right-wing party Unión Demócrata Independiente (UDI), leading political supporter of Pinochet's dictatorship and molder of its authoritarian-neoliberal project. My hypothesis suggests that this political formation represented a "new right" born in the 1960s, whose aim was to provide a political alternative based on a neoliberal capitalist agenda and on a very conservative stance in political, social and cultural matters. The specific features of Chile's transition to democracy, retaining substantial elements of the dictatorship's economic and institutional model, as well as its links with the Opus Dei, allowed the UDI to consolidate its presence and redefine the nature of Chilean politics, especially through the "municipalization" of political practices. |
