Darstellung der Zusammenhänge zwischen der kapitalistischen Durchdringung der Landwirtschaft, der Polarisierung der sozialen Klassen und der Migration in Lateinamerika. Analyse von Ursachen und Konsequenzen der Landflucht in einigen peruanischen Landesteilen mit Hinweisen auf die Rolle des internationalen Kapitals im Rahmen der Agrarentwicklung

For much of the twentieth century the Peruvian working-class has been limited in size and divided between different groups with divergent political objectives. Successive Peruvian governments have been able to capitalize on these features in their attempts to control the working-class, directly regulating workers' organizations or playing off one group against another. Yet, despite these limits and divisions, workers have on several occasions staged general strikes and pressured governments into taking account of their demands. Consequently, the political development of sectors of the working-class at the local level has been closely affected by political processes at the national level.
