Victory for Perú Libre and Mariáteguismo By Christian Noakes posted on July 21, 2021 For more than a month, Keiko Fujimori and others in Peru’s right-wing opposition attempted to overturn the results of the June 6 presidential election that gave Perú Libre party’s candidate Pedro Castillo a narrow lead over Fujimori. On July 19, the National Jury of Elections upheld the results, officially declaring Castillo the winner. Castillo is set to take office July 28 for a five-year term. The right wing’s undemocratic campaign against the popular teacher and peasant leader included the utilization of the bourgeois-dominated media to smear Castillo. There was attempted bribery, largely orchestrated by Vladimiro Montesinos, former intelligence chief, under the dictator Alberto Fujimori from his prison cell. (midwesternmarx.com, July 9)

This officially marked the defeat of attempts by far right contender Keiko Fujimori to overturn the democratic will of the Peruvian people with false allegations of fraud. A review completed by the JNE found that Castillo had received 44,058 votes more than Fujimori, clearing the path to Castilo’s official victory. Castillo is a rural teacher and labor leader who rose to prominence as the leader of a major strike in 2017. He was the candidate of the political party Peru Libre (Free Peru), founded on the ideas of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin and José Carlos Mariátegui. Fujimori is facing major corruption charges and is the daughter of former fascist dictator Alberto Fujimori, who ruled the country from 1990 to 2000.

Mahir Ali IT’S not unusual for battle lines in the class war to be delineated more clearly in Latin America than elsewhere, and the fault lines have deepened in recent decades. Yet the stark contrast between the competing candidates in Peru’s presidential run-off earlier this month was nonetheless remarkable. It pitted a rural primary school teacher born to illiterate Andean peasants, with little political experience beyond organising a union and spearheading a successful teachers’ strike, against the very epitome of entrenched privilege, a would-be dynast whose father misruled Peru for a decade and is paying the price with a 25-year prison term.
Here is a mission worthy of a new generation.” -José Carlos Mariátegui, “Anniversary and Balance,” José Carlos Mariátegui: An Anthology June 26, 2021 — Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal reposted from Orinoco Tribune — While the turn towards analyzing ongoing settler-colonialism has finally reached the mainstream of North American political discussions, there is still a lack of popular understanding of the issues involved. Settler-colonialism is, ironically, understood within the framework of the ways of thinking brought by the European ruling classes to the Americas. By extension, the conceptions of decolonization are similarly limited. Although the transition from analyzing psychological or “discursive” decolonization to analyzing literal, concrete colonization has been extremely important, it requires some clarifications.
In voting on June 6, Pedro Castillo, candidate of the Peru Libre (Free Peru) political party, defeated three-time presidential candidate Keiko Fujimori, daughter of imprisoned former president Alberto Fujimori.
