Abstract
Description
La figura del Mariscal Andrés Avelino Cáceres (Ayacucho 1836 – Ancón 1923), héroe de la
Guerra del Pacífico y ex-presidente del Perú, ha sido empleada en los últimos años por el etnocacerismo,
movimiento político de trayectoria un tanto violenta que vincula elementos militaristas,
indigenistas y nacionalistas. ¿Por qué se dio esta apropiación de un héroe patrio? ¿Acaso
por desinterés estatal en incluirlo en el “panteón oficial de héroes”? ¿Qué encontraron los etnocaceristas
en el mariscal para convertirlo en símbolo? Este ensayo intenta responder a esas preguntas,
y reconstruir la compleja y parcial apropiación oficial de ese personaje.
The image of the Marshal Andrés Avelino Cáceres (Ayacucho, 1836-Ancón, 1923), a hero of the War of the Pacific and former president of Peru, has been used in recent years by etnocac - erismo, a political movement of rather violent trajectory that links militaristic, indigenist, and nationalist elements. How can one explain the appropriation of this national hero? Was it the state’s lack of interest in including Cáceres in the “official pantheon of heroes”? What did the etnocaceristas find in the marshal to turn it into a symbol? This essay tries to answer these questions, and to reconstruct the complex and partial official appropriation of this hero.
