There have been very few studies of the Peruvian Congress in the nineteenth-century, a place where liberalism and democracy fought to establish themselves vis-a-vis the generals who controlled the executive.
The study of the Peruvian Congress between 1823 and 1860 will provide a place to think about the possibilities for the development of democracy in a country where the executive was controlled by the men who had fought for independence.
By focusing on a posopographical study of its members, their political inclinations and the ways in which they were elected, as well as how they acted once in Congress, this study will shed light on the development of both liberalism and democracy in Latin America.
