Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

An accompanying Supreme Resolution, also signed by the President, carried the determination that the Armed Forces would be responsible for maintaining internal order in the affected locations, and that the National Police would support the military's efforts. 2. The area where the State of Emergency continues to exist includes some of Peru's most remote regions, where there is little official presence.
