The creation of the Instituto Indigenista Peruano (Peruvian Indigenist Institute-IIP) in 1946 was the result of several decades of discussion regarding the role of indigenous people in the Peruvian nation-state. The debate led to at least two main stances: that the indigenous presence constituted an obstacle to the constitution of the Peruvian nationality and that the nation had indigenous foundations. The IIP took a middle path by proposing a gradual, state-led process of assimilation that focused on cultural and pedagogical factors. Its creation involved the defeat of radical proposals and the conversion of those intellectuals who at some point took revolutionary stances.
