Ciencia política latinoamericana en clave comparada: mapeando el caso peruano
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-11-27) Rocha-Carpiuc, Cecilia
In recent decades, disciplinary studies on political science in Latin America have expanded rapidly. However, national case studies still predominate, and comparative analyses have only begun to emerge. The Peruvian case has received little attention in this literature and is rarely included in comparative studies, despite the discipline undergoing significant transformations in recent decades in this country. This article aims to fill this gap by providing an overview of the development and current state of political science in Peru from a comparative perspective, to situate it more precisely on the Latin American map while highlighting its particularities and challenges. After reviewing existing findings and offering a critical balance of prior research focused on political science in Peru, the article situates the case comparatively, exploring similarities and differences with other countries in the region based on evidence across several dimensions: institutionalization and professionalization; relations with the broader environment; teaching; academic production and research; and disciplinary analysis from a gender perspective. Methodologically, the article adopts a descriptive approach based primarily on an exhaustive review of secondary sources (both case–specific and comparative studies on political science in the region), complemented by primary sources to update the most recent information. The findings indicate significant advances in the institutionalization of the discipline in Peru over the last decade. However, essential challenges remain in comparison to countries where political science is more established. The article underscores the need for further research on dimensions that remain understudied in Peruvian disciplinary case studies, and advocates for the inclusion of Peru—as well as other countries with low or incipient institutionalization—into comparative disciplina.

El Estado mexicano y la Comisión para la Verdad (2021-2024): respuestas ante la evidencia de violaciones graves de derechos humanos
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-11-27) Marroquín Pineda, Teresa Isabel
The Commission for Access to Truth, Historical Clarification, and the Promotion of Justice for Serious Human Rights Violations Committed between 1965 and 1990 (CoVEH) was created by presidential decree on October 6, 2021, and concluded its mandate on September 30, 2024 presenting its Final Report 2024. Executive Summary of the reports produced by the five instruments of the CoVEH. This article aims to examine the main results of the mechanisms that composed the Commission, particularly the findings of the two research teams of the Historical Clarification Mechanism (MEH). It also seeks to outline the main reactions of the Mexican state in response to the evidence of serious human rights violations perpetrated against numerous groups of victims by the hegemonic party authoritarian regime of the 20th century. This is a case study based on documentary analysis and adopting a critical perspective. The main conclusion is that despite certain minimal actions, the Mexican state remains reluctant to implement a genuine and effective transitional justice process.

El Estado universitario y la generación de miedo e incertidumbre: la limitada producción académica en el pregrado de una universidad pública
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-11-27) Ramos Morales, Leonidas Lucas
In Peru, the number of undergraduate programs, students, and faculty in political science has increased in recent years; however, this growth has not been accompanied by a corresponding increase in the academic output of graduates, a deficiency particularly evident in public universities. The objective of this research is to analyze the academic output in political science of students and graduates of the National University of San Marcos over the last twenty years. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, with an emphasis on the qualitative dimension, applying tools typical of state ethnography. The results show that, despite having one of the largest student populations, outstanding physical infrastructure, and significant resources, the program registers low levels of theses and professional competency projects, in addition to a considerably long average completion time. Regarding the topics addressed, those related to public administration predominate, although they have not achieved significant academic impact. This critical situation is explained by two main factors: on the one hand, the process of preparing the documents takes place in an institutional environment —marked by administrative procedures, teachers, advisors and juries— that produces fear and uncertainty, which tends to paralyze students and graduates; on the other hand, many prioritize rapid job placement over the production of knowledge, in a frightening critical context marked by vulnerable family backgrounds and a state labor market characterized by deinstitutionalization.

Rompiendo el molde: medios no tradicionales para enseñar Ciencia Política en el Perú
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-11-27) Llanos Illescas, Luis Fernando
Political Science in Peru is often regarded as a subject in which students must focus on learning classical texts or theories that frequently bear little resemblance to the reality around them. However, in recent years, new trends have emerged—particularly through new instructors who seek to break away from traditional teaching approaches by introducing alternative media such as TV series, comics, or films. In this paper, we will examine the benefits and drawbacks of this approach through a review of the existing literature.

¿Qué pasa con la Filosofía Política?
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-11-27) Hernando Nieto, Eduardo
From a critical perspective on the development of contemporary political science, this article seeks to highlight the practical advantages provided by theoretical political knowledge, not only for conceptual clarification but also for understanding political dynamics and their projections. Precisely, the fact that current approaches to local political science prioritize qualitative and quantitative research, leaving out the contributions to political knowledge that subjects such as political philosophy or the history of political ideas can provide—except to include them within theoretical frameworks alone—would ultimately weaken the growth and robustness of the discipline.
