From the transnational perspective and the new politic history, this article analyses the pathway of chilean socialism as from the reception and appropiation made on Guatemala's revolution and counter revolution between 1944 and 1959. In this regard, we state that the reception, resignification and appropiation of the guatemaltecan process became another input in the reconfiguration of its third-position populism as it enhaced its antinorthamerican and latinoamerican component, and with it, contributed to the decline of anti-sovietism and anti-comunism sentiment that once destinguished it. In this regard, we affirm that the reception of the guatemaltecan process constitued one more element in the blending of its populist conception along with marxism. In this investigative line, through the review of parliamentary speeches, magazines, newspapers and official party documents, we demonstrate the contribution of the guatemaltecan cicle on the multicausality of factors that articulated the politic reconfiguration of chilean socialism's populist concept.
