Resumo
A presente dissertação tem como objeto a trajetória intelectual e revolucionária do trotskista peruano Hugo Blanco, entre 1958 e 1972. As datas mencionadas compreendem o momento em que Blanco deixou a cidade e foi para o campo iniciar seu trabalho revolucionário entre os camponeses e a publicação de sua mais importante obra, o livro Terra ou Morte. Hugo Blanco atuou entre os camponeses do vale da La Convención y Lares, na região de Cuzco, até ser preso em 1963, sendo exilado, posteriormente, no início dos anos 70, por iniciativa do governo militar que tomou o poder no Peru, em 1968. As ações de Blanco integraram um contexto específico do Peru e da América Latina. O primeiro, diz respeito a sua atuação na região serrana, onde predominava uma estrutura agrária com diversas características pré-modernas, que foi mencionada e atacada pela pena e pela espada de Blanco. O segundo, aborda a questão de que a América Latina, desde 1959, estava sendo abalada pelos ecos causados pela Revolução Cubana. Como consequências das possibilidades inauguradas por essa Revolução, especialmente quanto ao seu conteúdo político-militar que o governo cubano e alguns intelectuais fizeram questão de destacar, de consagrar e de irradiar pelo continente, como a adoção da guerra de guerrilhas, as organizações políticas de esquerda do continente também ficaram estimuladas a aplicar em seus países esta luta armada enquanto estratégia. Foi neste contexto, portanto, que a ação e a teoria do projeto revolucionário de Hugo Blanco emergiu. Diante disso, o nosso principal objetivo foi demonstrar que este projeto dialogou o tempo todo com os referidos contextos, mas, principalmente, com as novas ideias e perspectivas abertas pela Revolução Cubana. Contudo sustentamos que Hugo Blanco teve a particularidade de insistir em uma proposta contrária a guerra de guerrilhas, pois, uma vez vinculado ao trotskismo, estruturou seu projeto a partir dos ensinamentos de Leon Trotsky e de sua relação com a IV Internacional e suas seções Latino Americanas, como o SLATO. De todo modo, mais do que tentar refutar a guerra de guerrilhas, Hugo Blanco se colocou como um intelectual disposto a compreender e adaptar o trotskismo às particularidades da realidade rural do Peru. Na ocasião, valeu-se de importantes elementos que compõem a tradição política do país, como o indigenismo e o marxismo.
The present dissertation project was based on the evaluation of the intellectual and revolutionary trajectory of the Peruvian trotskyist Hugo Blanco, between 1958 and 1972. This period corresponded to the moment in which Hugo Blanco moved out from the urban area to the rural area in order to begin his revolutionary movement; at this time, he also published his most important book, Land or Death. Hugo Blanco acted among the peasants from the La Convención and Lares, region of Cuzco, until be arrested in 1963. Then, he was sent to exile by the military government at early 70’s. Hugo Blanco’s actions formed an unique context within Peru and Latin America. The first one concerns his interference in the mountainous area of the country, where there was an agrarian structure having several pre-modern characteristics. This structure received significant emphasis and severe criticism in the texts published by Hugo Blanco. And, the second one deals with the manner by which the Latin America was being influenced by the Cuban Revolution. As an outcome of the several possibilities originated from this revolutionary movement, particularly with regard to its political and military content that were valorized and disseminated across the continent by Cuban government and intellectuals, including the use of guerrilla, the left-political organization of the continent planned also to use such a strategy in their own countries. In this scenario, it was raised the bases of the revolutionary project proposed by Hugo Blanco. Accordingly, we aimed with this research to demonstrate that his project interacts with the mentioned historical context, principally with the new ideas and perspectives offered by the Cuban Revolution. However, the proposal of Hugo Blanco had the peculiarity of offering alternatives in relation to the ideas propagated by the mentioned revolution. This might be associated to the fact that he structured his project based on the lessons learned from Leon Trotsky and his connection with the sections of IV International dedicated to Latin America, such as SLATO. In summary, rather than refute the adoption of guerrilla, Hugo Blanco acted as intellectual proposing a better understanding and utilization of trotskyism in accordance with the peculiarities of the rural area of Peru. In this context, he also used important elements that constituted the political organization of the country, such as the indigenism and marxism.
