@npguerrerot shows that a non-state security arrangement in Peru, the Peasant Rounds, generated long-lasting reductions in criminality and conflict by fostering social capital. The research highlights the importance of bottom-up structures in weak state capacity settings.

@hparedes_c looks at the effects of a land expropriation and redistribution process in Peru on local political competition. The reform increased the number of contesting parties, voter turnout, and the participation of more educated, older, and indigenous candidates.

Al final del día, MVLL fue alguien que amó profundamente la literatura, y al Perú. Creciendo en la misma ciudad, siempre fue inevitable leer como familiares lugares, momentos y ausencias comunes. (1/2)
En su cosecha de novelas y ensayos escandaliza la abundancia de obras maestras, cada una de las cuales podría haber sostenido el prestigio de toda una carrera. Un repaso a los trabajos más destacadas de Mario Vargas Llosa
