This dissertation explores the century of political and social history that preceded Peru's 1980-1992 Shining Path War, a conflict that left over 69,000 people dead. The thesis casts the Shining Path as the last and most extreme of a series of radical political movements that garnered strength in Peru's countryside between 1879 and 1980. Focusing on the Andean Department of Ayacucho, this project examines the contrasting political histories of two rural indigenous districts from the late 1870s onward. Uncovering rural Ayacucho's vibrant twentieth-century political history, the dissertation contends that the Shining Path had numerous political predecessors in the Ayacucho countryside. Those predecessors included the Tahuantinsuyo indigenous rights association of the 1920s, the populist APRA party in the 1930s and 1940s, radical Trotskyist organizations and the reformist Popular Action party in the 1960s, and the progressive programs of Peru's 1968-1980 military government. Though these political projects took different shapes and attracted varying levels of popular support in rural Ayacucho, all proposed to transform Peru's grossly unequal distribution of political, economic and social power. And all of them utterly failed to do so. Those failures came not for lack of effort, but instead because of the Peruvian state's policies of repression and malign neglect, and because of the unremitting force of racial and class denigration inside the Andean highlands. This context of prolonged political failure suggests why the Shining Path called for the total obliteration of the state. Historically unable to transform the Peruvian nation-state, Shining Path militants chose to destroy it. Ultimately, this study shows that the Shining Path was a part of---and not apart from---a long historical course of political thought, action, and reaction inside rural Andean communities.
