Likewise, were evaluated the most important physicochemical characteristic parameters of the waters of the main lagoon of the area called "Genesis". For the study, it obtained 24 liters of water of the Genesis lagoon from three strategic points taken at the convenience, finding that it had an electrical conductivity at point 1 of 4315 uS/cm, for point 2 a value of 4340 uS/cm. At point 3, a value of 4320 uS/cm, all values exceeded what is established by the Environmental Quality Standard (ECA), which is 1000 uS/cm for the water of category 4 (Conservation of the aquatic ecosystem) subcategory E1 (Lakes and lagoons). As for another parameter, such as dissolved oxygen, in point 3, it resulted in the value of 6.55 mg/L, lower than ECA for water (12.22 mg/L).

This assumption is very wrong. Of the 362 million square English steam trawlers began to land their catches.9 These kilometers of ocean on this planet, only 7.5 percent — the conti- trawlers were soon rendered more effective by power winches nental shelves — are shallower than 200 meters (“m”), and some and, following World War I, diesel engines.

In this paper, a study is made on the average spatial and temporal behavior of radon gas in soils of deposits; igneous rocks. Lima City. Radon concentration was determined using the LR-115 type 2 track detector during 36 periods, of 14 days each, in twenty holes distributed in the fifteen districts of Lima City. Radon concentration in soil pores ranged from 0.1 to 64.3 kBq/m3 with an average value of 5.6 kBq/m3. The average radon concentration in soil gas was about two times lower in winter than in the other seasons. High radon values during October/November 2017 were related to the earthquakes perceived in Lima City in that period. The highest radon concentrations were found in areas of alluvial deposits whose parental material has been removed from the Quilmaná and Huarangal volcanics by the Chillón and Huaycoloro Rivers. Soil gas radon concentrations were even higher in areas closer to volcanic and less distant from rivers.

This last situation is attributed to the ex President of Peru, Alberto Fujimori, who governed from 1990 to 2000; Having been sentenced by the Peruvian courts for human rights violations, to 25 years of imprisonment. It is the only case in Latin America where a former president is in prison for violation of Human Rights. This paper describes the socio-political conditions in which context human rights were violated; It analyses the factual and legal reasoning of the judges, contained in the sentence vs. ex-president Alberto Fujimori. Key words: Human Rights, Authoritarian State, Latin America; Resumen Existe una relación empírica entre tipo de Estado y la protección o violación de los Derechos Humanos. En un estado de derecho constitucional y democrático hay mayor garantía de protección de los Derechos Humanos, que en un estado autoritario y dictatorial. Esta última situación se atribuye al ex presidente del Perú, Alberto Fujimori, que gobernó de 1990 al año 2000; habiendo sido condenado por los tribunales peruanos, por violación de los derechos humanos, a una pena privativa de su libertad por 25 años.

Abstract The purpose of this study is to test research questions about the development of violence on the Peruvian central coast during the pre-Hispanic and Early Colonial times. This is the first study to provide a diachronic analysis of violence on the central coast. One null hypothesis was tested and falsified: that there are no differences in the prevalence and pattern of trauma over time on the central coast of Peru.
