Martín Vizcarra

President of Peru from 2018 to 2020

In the political history of Peru, Martín Vizcarra is one of the names the record keeps returning to.

The record lists Martín Vizcarra as President of Peru from 2018 to 2020.

Martín Vizcarra was born at Lima in 1963. His recorded nationality is Peru. He was educated at National University of Engineering and ESAN University.

Modern political life is continuous and public: careers are made and unmade at a speed that leaves little room between decision and verdict.

The record of office reads: Vice President of Peru (2016–2018), Minister of Transportation and Communications (2016–2017) and regional governor of Moquegua Region (2011–2014).

He is described as civil engineer, politician and engineer.

His name is attached above all to once again. What survives of a political career is usually not the speeches but the institutions left behind.

Recognition followed: Grand Cross with Collar of the Order of the Sun of Peru (2018), Collar of the Order of Isabella the Catholic‎ (2019) and Grand Collar of the Order of Prince Henry (2019).

That the career was made in Peru is not incidental: the institutions available, the franchise, and the constraints of the moment all shaped what could be attempted.

Martín Vizcarra's career is not finished, and the historical verdict on it has not been reached.
