| Sumario: | One of the debates in the field of social sciences in Peru refers to the characteristics or nature of the ruling class.

Sociologist Henry Pease (1977) notes that the State "was directly controlled by a closed oligarchy where agricultural exporters had hegemony. They imposedtheir terms of foreign conduct until the 30's without question" (Pease, 1977: 217). |
