Farid Kahhat and Alberto Vergara in conversation with Camila Osorio

Peru is experiencing a period of particular political disillusionment: weakened institutions, a sense of insecurity, and a citizenry distanced from its representatives. At the same time, Latin America also seems to be shifting its priorities, veering to the right, with security as a key electoral priority for its presidential candidates. What does the Peruvian case tell us about this trend? Is this change in the political landscape due to a cyclical ideological shift in the region, or is there something deeper behind it? Farid Kahhat and Alberto Vergara will discuss the reasons for this disenchantment with politics in Peru, the new forms of leadership emerging in the region, and where all of this might lead us.
