GREZ TOSO, SERGIO. UN EPISODIO DE LAS POLÍTICAS DEL "TERCER PERÍODO" DE LA INTERNACIONAL COMUNISTA: ELECCIONES PRESIDENCIALES EN CHILE. 1931. Historia (Santiago) [online]. 2015, vol.48, n.2, pp.465-503. ISSN 0717-7194.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0717-71942015000200003.

This article explains how the "class against class" policies, inspired by "Third Period" analysis from the Communist International, had a bearing on the nomination of two rival Communist candidates in the Chilean presidential elections of 1931. The author examines the political programs, campaigns and the election results obtained by Elias Lafertte (candidate of the "official" Communist Party of Chile and backed by the South American Bureau of the Communist International) and Manuel Hidalgo (candidate of the "opposing" Chilean Communist Party).

Palabras clave : Chile; twentieth century; Communism; Communist International; Third Period; presidential elections; "class vs. class" politics.
