Vol. 11 No. 13 (1979): Region and Regionalism

January to June 1979.

It addresses the problem of the region (as a natural fact) and regionalism (as a cultural variant of the country in opposition to the central power) in the republican history of Peru, with a greater incidence in the twentieth century and some detail in the departments of the south, particularly Arequipa. Various articles focus on the factors of regionalism as an expression of social unrest, the hegemonic role of the popular classes, without neglecting the material bases that drive them, such as the development of the internal market.
