GOMEZ DE LA TORRE ROTTA, Andrés  e  MEDRANO CARMONA, Arturo. Origins and Evolution of Subversion and Counterintelligence in Peru, 1958-2015. URVIO [online]. 2020, n.26, pp.57-71. ISSN 1390-4299.  https://doi.org/10.17141/urvio.26.2020.4223.

The actions of subversion in Peru and the role of the Armed Forces to combat them based on the French anti-subversive school developed in a context of absence from the State in the most impoverished areas, where each side disputed to win over the population. The objective of this article is to delve into the origins, training and French military influence of the Peruvian counterintelligence and understand its actions in that context. Through a qualitative research, based on a historical approach, we seek to understand the actions of the Peruvian counterintelligence and establish the origins and evolution of subversion in the country -directed at gaining the population to promote terrorism- as well as how this was embodied in the original counterintelligence doctrine. A fundamental part of this investigation is the data regarding counterintelligence contained in the Final Report of the Comisión de la Verdad y Reconciliación. The conclusions point out the relationship between the subversive origins, the doctrine and the excuses of terrorism, by Walzer. The study is an important support for further investigations.
