    ¿«Corruptos» o «eficientes»? La gestión de combustible de la Policía Nacional en Lima
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-12-13) Villaorduña, José Manuel; Bürkli, Hans
    This paper examines cases of illicit fuel use on the part of members of the Peruvian National Police (PNP) in Lima, by regarding the phenomenon as part of the generalized and normalized corruption within the institution. This approach accounts for the failure of the implemented oversight systems to regulate fuel usage and the persistence of irregular practices, such as fuel extraction and unauthorized vehicle use given that these practices have their origin in and in turn uphold structural deficiencies and cultural characteristics of the institution. This research provides an account of the characteristics and mechanisms that allow the generalization of corruption, highlighting those activities that legitimize said practices among members’ narratives. As a result, a positive appraise of illicit fuel use has been constructed in relation to an apparent fulfillment of the institutional mission. Following this approach, traditional definitions of corruption in the public sector and their consequences are problematized here. Information examined in this paper comes from the Direction of Logistics of the PNP (DIRLOG) and from testimonies collected during interviews with members of the organization.

    Hijos de Los Shapis y de The Clash. Propuesta cultural creativa en Lima
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-12-13) Miramont, Lucie
    The independent musical scene of Lima encompasses political issues or refers to the Peruvian identity. This article touches on particular aspects of this alternative scene. From my standpoint, the artistic and political dimensions being very much imbricated, the study naturally leads us to look at the social dynamics at play in Peru. It intends to start from an in-depth analysis of the different influences of the artists in order to understand what inspires them to create and how their inspiration is converted into original and hard-hitting creation songs.

    Entre el amor romántico y el confluente: representaciones sociales del amor en jóvenes lesbianas de la clase alta limeña
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-12-13) Giesecke, Micaela
    Love has been subject of interest to various areas of knowledge, art and everyday life. From the field of sociology, this paper aims to analyze social representations of love among young lesbians of Lima’s upper class. The focus is on how their trajectories, families and self-identification influence the construction of such representations. Nine interviews were conducted with young lesbians from the upper class to answer the research question. Two approaches to love were found: from romantic to confluent love and towards confluent love. Moreover, it was found that this love holds three secrets: the secret of the inner world, the secret that is kept from their families and the environment and the one that is hidden from their partners. The aforementioned is linked, among other factors, to the specificity of being lesbians from Lima’s upper class.

    La construcción de la identidad lesbiana en el marco de familias heteronormativas en Lima Metropolitana
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-12-13) Cuba, Lucero
    The present article analyzes how the family discourses shape the process of construction of the lesbian identity of young and adult women from Metropolitan Lima. From a qualitative methodology, deepened in the interpretative processes of construction of the own lesbian identity as well as of the discourses received by the family of origin. Through a theoretical sample, interviews were conducted in depth to nine young and adult lesbian women in order to perform a generational analysis. It was found that the construction of a lesbian identity implies a process of resignification of heteronormative discourses that establish the abjection of the lesbian subject, resignification that becomes possible due to the lesbian referents in the culture and, therefore, varies according to the cultural context of the time. In this process, the family intervenes, on the one hand, reproducing the heteronormativity and, in a second instance, restoring the heterosexual order through different discourses of rejection to the lesbian subject, like heterosexualization, expulsion from the home, aggression, among others. Being an exploratory study, the need to deepen the subject from different perspectives stands out.

    Estado y producción de riesgo: estudio de caso de las comunidades ribereñas de Belén-Iquitos, Perú
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Fondo Editorial, 2019-12-13) Gorenstein, Sharon
    Developmental policies, or development projects in general, have consistently failed to achieve their stated objectives by being based on a «construction» of the country/community/space that bears little relation to local culture. While development projects fail, the government succeeds in expanding the field of bureaucratic state power in the space that needs to be «developed». Seen from a notion of governmentality, socially legitimated authorities interfere in spaces isolated from the actual development by focusing on adjudicating the vices or virtues of developmental policies and their risks or lack thereof. In this way, risk works as a calculative rationally associated with welfare as a way of representing events, such as flooding, so they can be made governable. By focusing on the contrast between the risk perceptions of the state and river communities in the district of Belen, I attempt to contribute to recent debates about government risk assessment as the reorganization and simplification of natureto suit developers’ and public and private institutions’ goals. I analyze and identify three differentdimensions of risk understanding: view of the river; notions of development; and belenino identity.
