This article analyzes the political division of Chile during the Unidad Popular re-gime and states that the main setting where political violence took place were the streets of Santiago through manifestations, counter manifestations, meetings and political rallies. Political violence will be analyzed in this paper based on three fun-damental ideas: first, the presence of violence in speeches and programs in every political party; second, the use of violence in action, by which we mean the practi-cal use of violence by the different political actors which aimed at conquering the public spaces of Santiago, and third, interaction between theory and practice, how violence was politically integrated and used and aimed at creating identities, sym-bols, and alliances.

The traditional Nitrate industry was heading for a fall anyway. But this was hastened and sharpened by the worldwide recession sparked by the Crash of Wall Street towards the end of 1929. Nitrate production dropped by 90%, which was bad news for railway companies which did virtually nothing but carry Nitrates and the inputs used in making it. Two fell by the wayside, but one survived to prosper, since it served the two massive factories using the new Guggenheim production process, which was the only one able to defend itself in a new world, decidely less friendly to Chilean Nitrates than the one it replaced.

This paper states that at a very early stage in Chile the 'specter of communism', which was brought about as a result of the Paris Commune, was widespread in the Chilean press of that time. Thus the demonizing of those who were labeled as Communists was not unrelated to national politics. Furthermore, Marx was also the target of offensive attacks which suggests that the Chilean elite has always employed all possible resources to slander political actors and distort facts through it own press, being in this case, El Mercurio.
