Editing Mariateguism (section)

==History==
The Martieguist movement was founded as a result of its founder, [[File:Mariateguism.png]] José Carlos Mariátegui, visting [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany during the [[File:Luxem.png]] [[Classical Social Democracy|Spartacist uprising]] in 1919. He studied [[File:Ormarxf.png]] [[Marxism|Marxist]] theory in [[File:Cball-Italy.png]] Italy, gaining the belief that [[File:Fash.png]] [[fascism]] can be stopped if [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism|socialist forces]] avoided contradictions.

Mariátegui was arrested during a 1927 [[File:Anticommunism.png]] {{PCBA|Anti-Communism|anti-communist}} trial, but his sentence was later changed to house arrest. A year after this, he would found the '''Peruvian Socialist Party''', a [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Marxist-Leninist]] party which claimed to combine the former ideology with Latin American values.

Mariátegui sent delegates in order to propose his ideology to the Third International in 1929. His ideology was accepted, despite the congress initially disagreeing with his support of [[File:Native.png]] [[Indigenism]]. Despite his ideology being accepted by the Third International, Mariátegui had doubts about the PSP being affiliated with the orgnization. In April 1930, Martigeui would pass away aged 35. The Peruvian Socialist Party would be renamed to the '''Peruvian Communist Party'''.

After Martigeui's death, [[File:Demsocstar.png]] [[Democratic Socialism|democratic socialists]] and [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democrats]] would join the PCP. In 1930, the PCP was banned by the government due to two uprisings. The party was unable to participate in elections due to this ban, and this supported Manuel Prado Ugarteche's candidacy. 

The PCP moved away from its vangardist goals in the 1940's as [[File:Strato.png]] [[Stratocracy|Manuel Odría's]] military dictatorship repressed the organization. In the 1960's, [[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism|Maoist]] and [[File:Guevara.png]] [[Guevarism|Guevarist]] factions grew inside of the PCP, causing splits inside of the party. This would eventually culminate in a [[File:ML.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|pro-Soviet faction]] splitting away from the PCP, and the Maoists formed the the Peruvian Communist Party - Red Flag party.
