Great piece! Would love to read more LatAm analysis in the future. Many politicians in the region seem to have 9 lives - in all likelihood, Peru would be in a better place now if Fujimori’s daughter had won the last election. Now that he’s been released from prison, could see the family making a successful comeback.

I recommend checking out Isabella Weber’s excellent How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate. Will have to read up on Fujimori’s approach. Great article.
