description Relations between the State and the Church in Peru had been fluctuating since before 1990, culminating in their legal separation in 1980 and tensions surrounding the issue of violence and pacification. Despite some periods of cordialities, conflicts escalated throughout the 1990s. This study explores these confrontations between the government of Alberto Fujimori, the Archbishop of Lima, Augusto Vargas Alzamora, and other Catholic ecclesiastical leaders. It analyses the characteristics of these conflicts, particularly those related to population, reproductive health, and abortion, highlighting the Catholic Church's capacity to influence public policies in authoritarian and globally adverse contexts. This study is relevant as it helps to understand both the transformations and continuities in institutional relationships, the significance of certain public policies, and the strategies employed in these confrontations.

Las relaciones entre el Estado y la Iglesia en el Perú habían sufrido variaciones desde antes de 1990 lo cual había resultado en la separación legal entre ambas instituciones en 1980 y tensiones en torno al tema de la violencia y la pacificación. A pesar de ciertas cordialidades, los enfrentamientos sin embargo recrudecieron en los años de 1990. El trabajo explora dichas confrontaciones, entre el gobierno de Alberto Fujimori, el arzobispo de Lima Augusto Vargas Alzamora y otros líderes eclesiásticos católicos. Se analizan las características de estos conflictos, en particular, en torno a los temas de población, salud reproductiva y aborto, planteándose la capacidad católica para revertir políticas públicas en entornos autoritarios y globales adversos. El estudio es relevante, pues ayuda a entender las transformaciones y permanencias en las relaciones interinstitucionales, la importancia de ciertas políticas públicas, así como las estrategias en los enfrentamientos. As relações entre o Estado e a Igreja no Peru têm sido instáveis ​​desde antes de 1990, culminando na separação jurídica das duas instituições em 1980 e em tensões em torno da questão da violência e da pacificação. Apesar de alguns períodos de cordialidade, estes confrontos intensificaram-se na década de 1990. Esta obra explora estes conflitos entre o governo de Alberto Fujimori, o Arcebispo de Lima, Augusto Vargas Alzamora, e outros líderes eclesiásticos católicos. Analisa as características destes conflitos, particularmente os relacionados com a população, a saúde reprodutiva e o aborto, e considera a capacidade da Igreja Católica para influenciar as políticas públicas em contextos globais autoritários e adversos. Este estudo é relevante porque ajuda a compreender as transformações e continuidades nas relações interinstitucionais, a importância de determinadas políticas públicas e as estratégias empregues nestes confrontos.
