There has been a growing link between evangelical sectors and political life in Chile since the return to democracy. The inclusion of evangelicals in parties of the right-wing sector has been notorious and has enabled evangelicals to participate in elections, with some of them even winning public seats.

It is argued that the parallel processes of politicization and shift towards the right-wing of evangelical sectors occur within a post-material cleavage that was motivated by the search for new spaces to defend evangelical values in the political arena.
