This thesis will analyze the influence of the breakup of the alliance of the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China between the years of 1960 and 1979 in the Peruvian Communist Party as a part of the international communist movement and in the context of the Cold War in Latin America. It will investigate the impact of the global events in the covered period, specifically those related to the schism of international communism, in the evolution of the breakaway parties of the Peruvian Communist Party. For this purpose, it will use primary documentary sources: texts, declarations, analysis, and written testimonies of the multiple splinter communist parties and their most important members. In summary, it will argue that the rise of Maoism as an alternative current within global communism in defiance of Soviet hegemony in the early 1960s and its spread in the Latin American and Peruvian left was one of the main causes of the fragmentation of the Peruvian Communist Party and its subsequent weakening over the following two decades, but also of the emergence of the terrorist organization Peruvian Communist Party-Shining Path. Thus, this thesis aims to demonstrate how the intransigence of the Peruvian and foreign communists doomed the anticapitalistic and antiimperialist revolution and how the concepts of «revisionism» and communist internationalism are crucial to understand the fate of José Carlos Mariátegui’s party.
