Publisher's Synopsis
Acción Nacional was a small Chilean nationalist political grouping that emerged as a result of the frustrated presidential candidacy of Jorge Prat Echaurren in 1964. After the parliamentary elections of 1965, in which the right-wing won a meagre parliamentary representation, it launched a proposal to regroup conservatives, liberals, nationalists and non-Marxist independents into a single political grouping. This is an approximation of its brief but significant existence.
