Sumario:It is commonplace in the Peruvian social sciences to appeal to the "colonial heritage" to explain the root of our social ills. No one with a minimum of lucidity and sensitivity to the environment that surrounds us could categorically reject such a statement. Almost two centuries ago Peru broke with Spain, but the wound of the conquest still festers.
