Andean Truths: Transitional Justice, Ethnicity, And Cultural Production In Postshining Path Peru Studies How Literature, Drama, Film, And The Visual Arts Contest The Dominant Narrative Of National Peace And Reconciliation, As Constructed By Peru'S Truth And Reconciliation Commission. Established In 2001, The Commission Aimed To 'Investigate And Make Public The Truth' Of The Country'S Twentyyear Civil War, Drawing Upon Homologous Predecessors That Provided A Highly Scripted Model Of Truthgathering And National Healing. In This Model, A Predetermined Collective Mourning, Catharsis, And Reconciliation Would Move The Nation Forward In A Consensuallydetermined Fashion. Andean Truths Shows That The Peruvian Case Proves Internationallyendorsed Models Insufficient For Arriving At The 'Truth' Of A National Trauma That Primarily Affected Disenfranchised Ethnic Groups, Namely, The Andean Quechua Speaking Populations That Accounted For The Overwhelming Majority Of Victims Of The Violence. Even As Scholars Recognize The Importance Of Bringing Multiple Voices To The Table In Discussing Postshining Path Peru, We Are Still Trying To Understand What A More Andeanoriented Transitional Justice Process Might Entail. Drawing On Theories Of Decoloniality, Intercultural Communication And Epistemological Diversity (Following Scholars Such As Enrique Dussel, Anbal Quijano And Boaventura De Sousa Santos), Lambright Analyzes Cultural Products, From The Theater Of Yuyachkani To The Narrative Of Oscar Colchado Lucio, The Art Of Edilberto Jimnez, And Other Popular Artistic Responses, That Highlight Andean Understandings Of The Conflict And Its Aftermath. These Cultural Products Challenge Dominant Understandings Of The Conflict And Question Peru'S Ability To Overcome Its Collective Trauma Without Seriously Reconsidering Prevailing Cultural Paradigms.
