Abstract
El objetivo de esta tesis es analizar actos de resiliencia por parte de disidentes sexuales y de
género durante y poco después del conflicto armado interno a lo largo del valle del Huallaga,
en las regiones de San Martín y Huánuco entre 1980 y el 2010. En el Perú, la homosexualidad
era considerada una enfermedad y, para integrantes de los grupos subversivos, también una
amenaza social. Este odio fue el desencadenante de crímenes contra esta población de parte de
Sendero Luminoso y el Movimiento Revolucionario Túpac Amaru, quienes se repartieron el
control de San Martín y Huánuco.
A través de un estudio de documentos provistos por la Comisión de la Verdad y la
Reconciliación, testimonios orales de sobrevivientes, fotografías y fuentes audiovisuales; esta
tesis demostrará que los homosexuales recurrieron a diversas estrategias que les permitieron
afrontar un contexto de violencia exacerbada debido a la presencia de la subversión, las fuerzas
armadas y policiales, y el narcotráfico imperante esas regiones. Estas estrategias, además, se
prologaron hasta la primera década del siglo XXI como parte de una lucha para la visibilizar
estos crímenes y reivindicar los derechos de la recién llamada comunidad sanmartiniana LGBT
en términos de salud, reparación y justicia.
The aim of this thesis is to analyze acts of resilience by sexual and gender dissidents during and shortly after the internal armed conflict along the Huallaga Valley, in the regions of San Martín and Huánuco, between 1980 and 2010. In Peru, homosexuality was considered a disease and, for members of subversive groups, also a social threat. This hatred triggered crimes against this population by the Shining Path and the Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement, who shared control over San Martín and Huánuco. Through a study of documents provided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, oral statements of survivors, photographs and audiovisual sources, this thesis will demonstrate that homosexuals turned to different strategies that allowed them to face a context of exacerbated violence due to the presence of subversion, the armed and police forces, and the drug trafficking in those regions. These strategies continued into the first decade of the 21st century as part of a social struggle to make these crimes visible and reclaim the rights of the newly named LGBT sanmartinian community regarding health, reparations, and justice.
