Héctor Paredes Castro looks at the effects of a land expropriation and redistribution process in Peru on local political competition. The reform increased the number of contesting parties, voter turnout, and the participation of more educated, older, and indigenous candidates.

Natalia Guerrero Trinidad shows that a non-state security arrangement in Peru, the Peasant Rounds, generated long-lasting reductions in criminality and conflict by fostering social capital. The research highlights the importance of bottom-up structures in weak state capacity settings.

Dean Yang Karmini S Jorge Garcia Hombrados Viola Asri Warwick Economics Thanks to all participants for a fantastic development economics workshop! The 2025 Bristol Applied Economics Meetings (BÆM) are not over yet. Tomorrow we continue with the meeting on “Gender, Diversity, and Human Capital.”
