Luis Alberto Edwards Vives[1] (25 November 1874 in Valparaíso – 3 April 1932 in Santiago) was a Chilean historian, nationalist politician and lawyer. He was a member of the influential Edwards family. His most famous work (highly influenced by Oswald Spengler and the German Conservative Revolution) was La fronda aristocrática en Chile (1928). This analyzed the history of Chile in the 19th century as a conflict between the authoritarian state and the aristocracy.[2]
