Perú 2013: La Paradoja De La Estabilidad

Abstract

RESUMENEste artículo es una revisión del devenir político peruano durante el 2013. El Perú es una democracia sin partidos sostenida en un Estado débil, lo que si bien limita la capacidad de los políticos para establecer vínculos estables con la ciudadanía, no ha afectado seriamente la estabilidad del régimen político. Por un lado, una élite política desprestigiada, precaria y fragmentada coexiste con una influyente tecnocracia económica, fortalecida por los buenos resultados económicos del país en los últimos años. Por otro, esta brecha entre Estado y sociedad hace que la sorprendente (y precaria) estabilidad peruana coexista con signos de descontento entre sectores urbanos que rechazan el sistema político y se ven asediados por la inseguridad ciudadana, mientras que en zonas rurales se registren fragmentados episodios de movilización que dan cuenta de la contracara del crecimiento económico, sostenido en la extracción y exportación de materias primas.Palabras clave: Perú, democracia, conflictos sociales, elecciones, partidos políticos.

Nevertheless, the democratic transition coincided with a boom in the economy.…”

“…The appointment of progressive politicians and experts as ministers and directors of national agencies, which was the by‐product of electoral alliances forged to overcome polarised and fragmented competition in Congress (Barrenechea and Sosa‐Villagarcia, 2014: 283–285; Sosa‐Villagarcia, 2014), made the introduction of these policies possible. This was especially the case in sectors such as the ministries of Justice and Human Rights, and Women and Vulnerable Populations.…”

Collective Choice and Social Welfare by Amartya Sen: A review essay with reference to development in Peru

“…Even when the lives of the marginalized, such as rural population groups, could be partially included as part of the public agenda at some point, their inclusion is fragile. This fragility of inclusion is set against a background of socially uprooted political parties with low legitimacy and fragmented political mobilization in rural areas (Barrenechea & Sosa Villagarcia, ).…”
