More than half a century after the publication of Alfred Crosby's seminal book about the environmental dimension of the Americas’ colonization, the Columbian Exchange and its enduring echoes and ramifications continue to plague the imagination of scholarly and popular audiences. Marcia Stephenson's Llamas beyond the Andes is a much-overdue reconsideration of the centrifugal processes unleashed by the early modern ecological transformation of the …

Land without Masters: Agrarian Reform and Political Change under Peru's Military Government
In 1969, a group of self-claimed radical military officers led by General Juan Velasco Alvarado, aided by able technocrats and a favorable hemispheric context, unleashed the last comprehensive agrarian reform of twentieth-century Latin America. After a coup and through a combination of an allegedly emancipatory discourse and authoritarian means, the purportedly radical generals aimed to transform the material foundations of the country by dismant…
The Enduring Climate of Conflict: Drought, Impoverishment and the Long Aftermath of Civil War in Peru
This article explores the relationship and correlation between climate and conflict in the contemporary Peruvian Andes before, during, and in the aftermath of the most recent civil conflict (1980-2000). Based on the combination of climatological data related to the 1982-1983 El Niño, personal testimonies, and other source documents, the following pages unpack the ecological meaning of the campesino condition as a foundational element preceding th…

The Military Grammar of Agrarian Reform in Peru
This article places the 1969 Peruvian agrarian reform as a defining moment in the history of Latin American militarism and rural capitalism. By unpacking agrarian reform and the rhetorical transformation of indios into campesinos, this article reveals how General Juan Velasco's military government (1968-75) enforced economic, ideological, and social discipline through a seemingly empowering language of revolution. Capitalizing on enduring radical…

Second Independence, National History and Myth-Making Heroes in the Peruvian Nationalizing State: The Government of Juan Velasco Alvarado, 1968-1975
This article examines the rhetoric and visual discourse of the first phase of the military regime in Peru (1968-1975), explaining the remaking of national history as a pivotal component of a larger cultural project. Contrasting previous processes of nation and state making, Juan Velasco Alvarado and his officers depicted the preceding nation as a failure, one which could be overcome through a so-called authentic revolution. In claiming the making…
