"Los años de Velasco" is a study on former president of Peru, Juan Francisco Velasco Alvarado, and his government. The work explores the transformations that took place during the seven years he led the country, including: agrarian reform, nationalization of oil and mining companies, nationalization of banks, creation of industrial communities, education reform, and more. The radical nature of these transformations, many of which were only recognized decades later, explains why Velasquismo continues to be a topic of passionate debate in Peruvian society today.
