Mario R. Gutiérrez Gutiérrez (17 October 1917 – 4 August 1980) was a Bolivian politician who led the Bolivian Socialist Falange (FSB) after the death of its founder, Óscar Únzaga de la Vega, until his death in 1980.[1] He was Foreign Minister from 1971 to 1973[2] and wrote about Bolivian politics. Born in Santa Cruz de la Sierra in 1917, Gutiérrez studied law and political science at the Catholic University of Chile. After the death of Óscar Vega in a failed coup by the FSB, Gutiérrez, a party member since its creation in 1937, was elected leader of the party by its regional leaders. Gutiérrez was the presidential candidate for the FSB in the 1960 elections, winning 8% of the popular vote.[3] Gutiérrez wrote publications about the political situation in Bolivia and South America.

Gutiérrez is buried on the Paseo de los Notables (Avenue of the Notables) in Santa Cruz General Cemetery.[4]
