Internal conflict in Peru

Madeinusa’s mother is said to have fled to Lima at some point in the past for unknown reasons. During tiempo santo people, in the temporary absence of supreme oversight, give in to excesses of all kinds, some are harmless enough like eating and dancing while others are darker and more sordid in nature, like the sexual abuse that Madeinusa suffers at her father’s hands. Incest is not only presented as one more of those excesses or as a signifier for the barbaric character of a society left to its own devices. Rather, as I will argue, incest here is used to recall the state of anomie that became accepted as commonplace throughout the duration of the internal armed conflict. But Madeinusa is hardly alone in this: Josué Méndez’s 2008 release Dioses (Gods) is a satire in which Diego, the youngest child of an upper crust Lima family, feels attracted to his older sister, Andrea. Additionally, in his previous film, Días de Santiago (Days of Santiago), Méndez had already explored incest although much less prominently than in Dioses: the father of Santiago, the main character, in the end is revealed to be sexually abusive toward his youngest…

In “Hamlet';, the tragedy by William Shakespeare, Hamlet, the prince of Denmark withholds a great internal conflict throughout the play. As a result, Hamlet contradicts himself many times throughout out the play, which caused the unnecessary death of many others. As well as trying to be true to himself, Hamlet is an expert at acting out roles and making people falsely believe him. The roles he plays are ones in which he fakes madness to accomplish his goals. While one second Hamlet…

fight for independence from Spain and Portugal. Since 1990, however, only one — the conflict between Peru and Ecuador — escalated into a full-blown war (Dominguez, 2003: 5). These two countries had a long-running conflict, with many events leading up to this final war, after which a successful arbitration occurred. In this paper, I will look at two explanations of war in the field of international relations — the security dilemma, an assumption of realism; and issue indivisibility, an assumption…

globalisation and conflict in Peruvian Arawak communities, specifically the occurrence of accusations of child sorcery. In the 2003 book ‘Darkness and Secrecy: The Anthropology of Assault Sorcery and Witchcraft in Amazonia’, author Fernando Santos wrote a chapter exploring how the modernising forces of globalisation often result in an escalation in accusations of witchcraft among children. Globalisation in the Arawak communities over the last couple of centuries has resulted in the adoption of…

The influence of religion in Latin American politics, particularly between 1780 and 1990, was immeasurable. Catholicism, in particular, was frequently used as both a way to legitimize power and a method to justify certain political decisions. Though it was very influential early on in Peru, as time passed, the footholds of religion were weakened in the political sphere. For example, while Catholicism strongly influenced Tupac Amaru and his actions in Peru, the Mexican government began to push…

However the connection with the relationship between colonialism and positive and negative effects on nationalism lies in the colonial categories of ethnoracial exclusion that structured the Spanish colonial empire. These ethnoracial cleavages differentiate between the strong and the weak citizens who are not fully recognized as belonging to the national community. Using Mexico as an example, after the revolution, new state elites rose to power from the growing nationalism of the mestizaje.…

up in. The importance of racial makeup and class status would be crucial in Bolívar’s upbringing, him being part of the wealthy mantuanos. His wealthy, land and slave owning status would be the key to him receiving a high level of education that would help shape his beliefs. The book goes into Bolívar’s time living in Paris, which would lead to his intellectual awakening. During this period in his life, he started truly experiencing politics for the first time. While in Paris, Bolívar witnessed…

functions the way it is meant to. These organizations can also work to install democratic ideals within the government and push the nation to more open, equal, and democratic government. The other 50% of aid being spent on civil society should be used to train and protect members of the media to handle threats from the population as well as shield them from attacks. By opening up the media to true freedom of press, information can be decimated across the population and corruption can be exposed.…
