History of the UDI
Generations and Political Culture (1973-2013)

This book addresses the history of the Chilean right-wing party Unión Demócrata Independiente (UDI), and its roots in a political network articulated by members and former members of the "Movimiento Gremialista," an organization founded at the Catholic University by Jaime Guzmán during the 1960s. It is the story of that activism which, from September 1973, sought to direct the foundational orientation of the dictatorship while simultaneously consolidating its own identity and project as a sector of an emerging right-wing.
