The 1973 military coup gave previously peripheral elements of the right the opportunity to exercise almost unlimited political and economic power. However, with the return to democracy in 1990, the right had to adapt to electoral politics. This book examines whether it is conforming to the rules of the electoral game.

'...a major contribution to studies of the Right in Latin America.' - Robert E. Biles, Perspectives on Political Science 'Pollack skillfully depicts the complexity, internal tensions, contradictions, and dynamism of various political and social groups whose unifying feature has been a shared, if largely negative agenda, based only on their general hostility to socialism...Pollack's study is an important start toward taking seriously the ideological, organizational, and programmatic diversity within Chile's political Right.' - Brian Loveman, Political Science Quarterly
