    The Frustrated Visit of the British Frigate HMS Montrose to Peru in 2012: An Explanation From the Decision-Making Process
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2026-09-01)
    Considering the Peruvian state's position on the Malvinas issue, the authorization and subsequent cancellation of the visit of the British frigate HMS Montrose in 2012 revealed institutional constraints and tensions. Based on a case study built from official sources, interviews, and statements, a classical theoretical approach using the Organizational and Bureaucratic Models is used to analyze the role of the main public actors involved in the decision-making process. In this sense, it is argued that the authorization followed institutional routines with little interaction between sectors, while the cancellation expressed a conflictive bureaucratic dynamic in which the Foreign Ministry was able to impose its position. The analysis also shows how Peruvian foreign policy decision-making operates under a high level of fragmentation, sectoral logics, unclear rules, and important power asymmetries between actors.

    From aspirational laws to the implementation of legislation against gender-based violence: bottom-up pressure in Peru and Argentina
    (2025-03-15)
    Gender-based violence is a rampant problem in Latin American countries. Historically, state policy to prevent and sanction it has developed slowly, usually having limited impact because of a lack of resources and political will. While the process of policy adoption involved feminist organizations and international norms diffusion, little is known about when and why policy to address gender-based violence can become a political priority. Based on a comparative case study of Peru and Argentina, we show that sustained mass mobilization was the key variable marking a turning point in both countries in state capacity building in that domain. The latter was importantly enhanced as a consequence of the Ni Una Menos protests. Through process-tracing analysis, we show that there was a substantial increase in state resources and personnel, as well as institutional innovation. This transformation occurred in response to the unprecedented mass mobilization of various sectors of society.
