Abstract

Mit dem Amtsantritt von José Antonio Kast am 11. März 2026 und dem Ende der Präsidentschaft von Gabriel Boric fand in Chile ein Machtwechsel statt, der die größte politische Veränderung seit dem Übergang zur Demokratie markiert. Zwar ist Kast der globalen radikalen Rechten zuzuordnen und hat im Wahlkampf die Notwendigkeit eines fundamentalen Wandels betont. Aufgrund seines zurückhaltenden Stils und der politischen Tradition des Landes dürfte seine Regierungsführung jedoch weniger disruptiv ausfallen als die von Donald Trump in den USA, Javier Milei in Argentinien oder Jair Bolsonaro in Brasilien. Während der chilenische Institutionenrahmen sich mäßigend auswirkt, begünstigt der externe Faktor Trump eine Politik, die Rechtsstaat und Demokratie in der Region erodieren lassen könnte.
