This book intends to provide the reader with a number of perspectives about the complex political landscape of Peru. Further, its main objective is to shed light on some of the topics that often get ignored when trying to assess the country’s identity and its positioning as a player in the Latin American region, and the world. Its final intention is to spark informed conversations where there are none, and enrich the ongoing ones.
