Abstract

While leftist governments have been elected across Latin America, this pink tide has failed to reach Peru. Instead, Peru remains a stark example of state capture, with a firmly entrenched corporate elite holding a monopoly on political power. With a particular focus on the role of the mining industry, Peru: Elite Power and Political Capture looks at the ways in which, following the 2016 elections, these elites have been able to consolidate their position at the expense of genuine democracy. In the process, John Crabtree and Francisco Durand provide a unique case study of state development by revealing the mechanisms used by elites to dominate political discussion and marginalise their opponents, as well as the role played by international financial institutions and foreign investors. The significance of their findings therefore extends far beyond Peru, and illuminates the wider issue of why mineral-rich countries so often struggle to attain meaningful democracy. Book jacket.

Abstract

"This coauthored monograph examines how business groups have interacted with state authorities in the three central Andean countries from the mid-twentieth century through the early twenty-first. This time span covers three distinct economic regimes: the period of state-led import substitutive industrialization from the 1950s through the 1970s, the neoliberalism of the 1980s and 1990s, and the post-neoliberal period since the earlier 2000s. These three countries share many similarities but also have important differences that reveal how power is manifested. Peru has had an almost unbroken hegemony of business elites who leverage their power over areas of state activity that affect them. Bolivia, by contrast, shows how strong social movements have challenged business dominance at crucial periods, reflecting a weaker elite class that is less able to exercise influence over decision-making. Ecuador falls in between these two, with business elites being more fragmented than in Peru and social movements being weaker than in Bolivia. The authors analyze the viability of these different regimes and economic models, why they change in specific circumstances, and how they affect the state and its citizens"--

Abstract

El sistema privado de pensiones, una de las grandes reformas neoliberales de la década de 1990, se encuentra en crisis. Las causas son varias y este libro las explora en el mayor detalle posible, analizando la trayectoria de las AFP desde su fundación en 1992 hasta el período marcado por la pandemia COVID-19. Lo hace estudiando el creciente poder económico y político de las AFP y sus cambiantes relaciones con el Estado, los partidos políticos y los pensionistas. El tema de qué hacer con las AFP sigue vigente en la medida en que han perdido confianza y crecen las demandas por transformar todo el sistema de pensiones, donde el Estado sea el ente rector y limite el rol de las AFP. Urge una reforma integral que reintroduzca el principio solidario abandonado en 1992 y asegure por la vía privada y estatal el objetivo de una vejez digna. Este libro aporta al entendimiento de la crisis de las AFP desde un punto de vista que va más allá de lo técnico-legal, incorporando un análisis realista del poder y de la influencia de las AFP, el grupo de interés más poderoso del país, para resistir los cambios. Su lectura sirve para entender la trayectoria y las posibilidades futuras del sistema de pensiones privado de las AFP.
