Abstract
During the last decade, the programmatic adaptation strategies of the Chilean right-wing were characterized by a gradual moderation and convergence with the left-wing. In recent years, this trend has been interrupted especially since the popular revolt of October 2019. Outside the center-right coalition, the emergence of Partido Republicano represents an update of the right-wing ideology that pushes for radicalism in economic, moral and social issues. Taking into account voices of leaders of this party, this article analyzes ideological and symbolic aspects, representative of a new radical populist right. This article concludes that this party renaturalizes issues displaced by the coalitions of the transitional period, representing an alternative for right-wing sectors that reject ideological moderation.
