My article “Global Mariátegui” was published online back in April, but happy to see it that it has now been published as part of the May issue of the Journal of Latin American Studies. Open access too!

Very sorry to hear that Rosemary Thorp has passed away. She was a wonderful mentor and a top scholar. Her economic history of Peru (with Geoffrey Bertram) is one of the most important works of Peruvian history written to date. She will be missed.

Don’t know what I like more about Mamdani, that he’s a socialist or that he’s an Arsenal fan.

If the Allende election teaches us anything, it’s that Zohran should keep an eye on goings on at the US embassy.

I also use Keen’s Latin American civilisation, though mostly for postcolonial sources. It looks like you’ve hit on a market opportunity for an enterprising historian of colonial Peru or the Andes!

The Duke Peru Reader has a couple of chapters with primary sources on “the ancient civilisations“ and “conquest and colonial rule”

Cover of Modern Peru: A New History edited by Paulo Drinot and Alberto Vergara. The design features a bold orange background with large text in white and yellow. In the center is a halftone-style image in burnt orange showing groups of people gathered along a road, with soldiers or police standing in the foreground and crowds in the background. A multicolored border in blue, green, and orange surrounds the image, giving the cover a layered, graphic look.

Gonzalo Banda, doctoral researcher, was quoted in @nytimes.com & the FT on the ousting of President Dina Boluarte in Peru

“It’s an opportunistic calculation, but one that reflects the precariousness of any politician in Peru, where in a matter of hours you can lose what little power you have.”

I mean estimating the relative value of articles or books on the basis of effort is equivalent to evaluating the value of a painting on the basis of the number of paint strokes or a piece of music by counting the number of notes.
