Violence and the peasantry
The book, published in 1985, brings together two essays written, one by Alberto Flores Galindo and the other by Nelson Manrique. These texts explain how the great majority of those killed during the first years of the Peruvian internal armed conflict had no part in the dispute. They were, fundamentally, humble Andean peasants whose historical condition as marginalized members of Peruvian society had made them victims of a confrontation in which, with no consideration whatsoever for their opinions and interests, they ended up caught in the crossfire.
