  • Ideólogos Y Expertos En El Perú Reciente
    Ideólogos y expertos en el Perú reciente Juan Martín Sánchez* y Osmar Gonzales** Escuela deEstudios Hispano-Americanos, CSIC. Sevilla y Biblioteca Nacional de Perú En este artículo se contraponen las figuras del ideólogo y el experto que tienen en común el uso del conocimiento y su polémica proximidad a las altas esferas del gobierno estatal. Se esbozan tres decenios de la vida política peruana en que aparecen y desaparecen esas dos figuras, atendiendo a su extracción sociopolítica y a su lugar en las luchas dentro del poder estatal. El movimiento pendular que parecieran haber tenido en las décadas de los setenta y ochenta, entre gobiernos reformistas más ambi- ciosos en cuanto a producción ideológica y los gobiernos conservadores más pragmá- ticos, se rompe con la irrupción del gobierno de Fujimori con sus tácticas mafiosas y secretas. En las últimas décadas y a escala mundial el llamado experto o tec- nócrata ha adquirido una importancia creciente hasta el punto de poner en tensión los clásicos modelos ilustrados de la política. Si bien su presencia no es absolutamente inédita sí lo es su arrollador protagonismo, siempre asido a las altas esferas del poder, ligado a las instancias últimas de deci- sión. En un proceso paulatino, el experto ha ido desplazando a ese tipo de intelectual tan cautivante y polémico como es el ideólogo. Éste, atento a los grandes valores que supuestamente deben tutelar a las sociedades, defien- de proyectos de formación de comunidad, preocupación que para los exper- tos resulta irrelevante. Desde los años del reformismo militar dirigido por el general Juan Velasco Alvarado (1968-1975), hasta el autoritarismo tecno-militar acaudi- llado por el ingeniero Alberto Fujimori, pasando por la fase conservadora del gobierno militar (comandada por el general Francisco Morales Bermúdez, 1975-1980) y los dos gobiernos constitucionales de la década del ochenta (de Acción Popular, 1980-1985, y el de APRA, 1985-1990), la tensión entre humanistas y expertos por capturar las fantasías del Príncipe ha sido perma- nente.

This is because corruption has greatly affected several countries. Following the exploration of various definitions and types of corruption, this thesis focuses on two efforts to rein in “grand corruption”, also known as executive corruption. The thesis is informed by existing theories of corruption as well as anti- corruption agencies and then situates Peru’s experience with corruption in its theoretical context and its broader Latin American context.

El Perú no ha sido ajeno a esta crisis, dado que, según reporte de la sala situacional del Ministerio de Salud, tenemos 1´520,973 contagiados y 51,238 muertes hasta el 28 de marzo del 2021. La pandemia viene evidenciando profundas carencias del país, las mismas que han sido desatendidas por décadas, a pesar del crecimiento económico vivido, como es el caso los servicios básicos, la alta informalidad que debilita las bases de la sociedad peruana, y lo más grave, la ineficiencia, indiferencia y corrupción del aparato público, que han continuado aún en plena pandemia, desestabilizando cualquier iniciativa de cambio y de buenas intenciones por recuperar la confianza y legitimidad ciudadana. El propósito del artículo es dar cuenta del drama peruano de la corrupción en plena pandemia del Covd-19, para ello se analizó la bibliografía disponible, haciendo uso de plataformas virtuales, que permitieron acceder a la información objeto de estudio. Las principales conclusiones a los que arriba la investigación es que es necesario abordar por igual al coronavirus y a la corrupción, revalorando los servicios básicos en la sociedad y fortaleciendo la participación ciudadana, como mecanismo de vigilancia y control.
