The ''Vanguardia Popular Socialista'' (VPS, Popular Socialist Vanguard) was a
far-right Chilean political party created in 1938.
It was the direct heir of the
National Socialist Movement of Chile (MNS) and founded as a consequence of the failed fascist coup in 1938 and
its repression. It included
Jorge González von Marées, while former MNS member
Carlos Keller refused to join it. The VPS obtained 2,5% at the
1941 legislative elections, having two deputies elected, one of them being
Jorge González von Marées.

The VPS was dissolved in 1942, the majority of its members joining
Juan Gómez Millas' far-right '.
