Communist participation in Gabriel González Videla’s Government had one of its most significant milestones the appointment of militants as ministers, mayors, governors and advisers in fiscal and semi-fiscal institutions. Since Popular Front’s government communists have participated in a triumphant alliance, but this was the first time the Communist Party assumed a central position within a government, promoting a program that included structural reforms. Although the situation turned out to be complex (in transition from anti-fascist struggle to anti-imperialist and anti-oligarchic proposals), experience forced the Chilean Communist Party to seek a way to integrate its governmental responsibilities with its evolutionary vocation, in local and global perspectives. This article explores the first experience of governmental participation of Chilean communists, based on archival documentation, press and memories of militants.
