    Dibujando el rostro de Lima: el mapa de Perrottet y los imaginarios de modernidad del siglo XX
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-12-14)
    This article is part of the research framework of my master's thesis entitled Los mapas de Lima: construcción de representaciones de la ciudad a través de sus planos (1977-2021), which reflects on the construction of representations of Lima through its maps, around the idea of "modernity" and was a reference for the urban changes that occurred throughout the twentieth century. These changes derived from historical processes, such as the rural migrations of the seventies and eighties, fragmented the physical and social organization of the city and placed some in privileged positions and others in marginal positions. lt that context, the first street guide of Lima for commercial use was created by the Swiss Oliver Perrottet in 1977 as a contribution to the process of "modernization" of the city, which was conveniently used by the State and Lima's elite to reproduce an ideological discourse around their ideals of "modernity. By means of this emblematic map of Lima, it will be revealed that although maps are seen as objective tools of cartography, they also act as devices of power and construct representations of the city that contribute to the formation of urban imaginaries that normalize marginalization, injustice, relationships of inequality and a sense of not belonging to one's own city.

    Estudio paisajístico de los aspectos biofísicos y antrópicos en dos espacios urbanos de la ribera del río Rímac en Lima, Perú
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2024-12-10)
    The objective of this paper is to describe and contrast the biophysical and anthropic aspects in two urban spaces adjacent to the Rímac River in the city of Lima: the Malecón de la Amistad, and the viewpoints of the old Reserved Zone project of the Rimac River. The approach is qualitative with a descriptive scope and the landscape analysis criteria of Castillo et al. (2014) to highlight the forms of use enabled by anthropic intervention in relation to the natural ecosystem. The results suggest that these spaces have been intervened to direct the movement of their visitors, but in both cases the material elements of the urban scene show a precarious integration between the biophysical and the anthropic, which reflects a contradictory interventionism that imposes and cancels various forms of use for visitors, exacerbating the spatial fragmentation.

    La percepción de la urbanización de tierras agrícolas en el valle andino de Cajamarca, Perú
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2025-09-30)
    The expansion of the city of Cajamarca on farmland in the valley, which constitute a vital and scarce resource, is analyzed. The perception of these changes, their consequences, and potential alternative solutions are studied. The study aims to understand the causes and behaviors of actors involved in the loss of peri-urban agricultural land, with the goal of contributing to the discussion on sustainable land management possibilities for the peri-urban territory through a survey and interviews. The transformation of peri-urban agricultural lands in the study area has been accelerated by external factors and weak regulations that favor the informal subdivision of rural properties for sale as urban lots. These lots have characteristics that will result in future urban areas lacking sufficient public spaces and services. The majority of household heads have a high regard for peri-urban agricultural lands and recognize the socio-environmental impacts of their urbanization. However, beliefs and opinions play a minor role in decision-making about property and housing, where comfort and the land market take precedence. Similarly, unsuccessful initiatives aimed at protecting the valley were identified, but permissive regulations and a lack of political will limited the persistence of their proponents. The results underscore the need for improvements in land-use planning and management with a sustainability-oriented approach.

    “Y viéndola un recinto”: la Lima amurallada en <i>Vida de Santa Rosa de Santa María</i> <i/> de Luis Antonio de Oviedo y Herrera
    (Penn State University Press, 2025-10-01)
    In 1687, Lima underwent a major transformation with the construction of an eleven-kilometer-long wall surrounding the city. This event quickly found its way into the literary works of the time, including Luis Antonio de Luis Antonio de Oviedo y Herrera's epic poem Vida de Santa Rosa de Santa María (Madrid, 1711). This article examines how the construction of the wall shaped the portrayal of the first American saint and the Lima community in the poem.
