The Fujimori regime through Tocqueville's lens: Centralism, regime change and peripheral elites in contemporary Peru

Producción científica: Capítulo del libro/informe/acta de congresoCapítulo de librorevisión exhaustiva

Resumen

The authoritarian regime of Alberto Fujimori (1992–2000) in Peru is the only case of a Latin American country that democratized in the Third Wave and then reverted to authoritarianism. Not only did democracy break down in the coup d’état of April 5, 1992, but also Fujimori went on to quietly construct an authoritarian regime that survived the entire decade.1 How is it possible that an entire country became subject to Fujimori’s authoritarian rule in an international context that no longer endorsed dictatorships? How did Fujimori’s regime—here referred to as the Fujimorato—acquire its stability?
