Abstract
The Chilean social outbreak of 2019 removed the institutional, political and social bases of the country. Until today it is considered an open crisis. This, since it gave way to a constitutional process that is still in develop, while the discontent of the population and the risk of new mobilizations persists. This work looks forward to analysing the outbreak considering the contributions of the procedural theory of populism. For this, it is argued that the rupture that these events generated in the relations between society and politics were the results of a systematic exclusion that caused an articulation of ignored social demands. The purpose of the analysis is to understand the reasons because of which this crisis was so hard to canalize by the institutional system in 2019, as well as offer a few hypotheses to identify the elements that could have diminished the conflict, at least until now. Finally, some theoretical dilemmas that the outbreak represents for the discussion about populisms are pointed.
