PERUVIAN MILITARY RELATIONS WITH THE UNITED STATES,

The analysis begins by considering matters which relate primarily to the military institutions themselves in Peru. After developing aspects of their structure and history, the paper examines the military in their domestic political relationships with the rest of Peruvian society, considering particularly the roles of the military government in Peruvian developments since 1968. Against this background, a review of military relations with the United States since World War II leads to a discussion of some of the policy alternatives open to both countries in the essentially political matter of their military relations.
