INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy. Requests can be made to our Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases we have filmed the best available copy.

McCoy Adviser ------ Donald VanMeter Department of Political Science ACKNOWLEDGMENTS From the time this study was originally designed to the time that the last few pages were being proofread, many people gave me inspiration and kind assistance. My research in Peru would have been impossible if several individuals had not been willing to open dusty file cabinets and to pour through working papers to help shed light on some question concerning the m ilitary government and the agrarian reform in Peru. ■ The Research Director of CENCIRA, Pedro Ortiz, and the librarians at /• the CENCIRA Library were especially helpful. The family of Luis Echevarria opened their home to me for my stay in Lima and treated me as a daughter and sister. To the many administrators who consented to interviews I am deeply in debt for the workings of government are not always explained by numbers and documents. My adviser, Terry McCoy, has been most helpful with guidance and suggestions for this study. His knowledge of Latin American politics and his dedication to his students have served as an inspiration to me. For the final preparation of the manuscript I wish to thank my typist, Elayne B leill, who remained calm and unflustered during my frantic moments. To my family I say a special thank-you for their steadfast support. Lastly, to my dear husband, Frank, my deepest thanks for his support of my academic endeavors--in theory AND in practice.
