Cholos, incas y fusionistas. El Nuevo Peru y la globalización de lo Andina

This Exploration deals with the cultural changes in Peru from the year 2000. Peru has become a society with more economic, political, social and global opportunities. Within this context, significant cultural changes can be noted. This essay explores cultural expressions such as the weaving associations of the women of Chinchero, the Peruvian cuisine and the rock band Uchpa. All have in common that they reinterpret ‘lo andino’, or what it is to be Andean, and that they integrate globalized elements. Based on this, a new identity becomes apparent which surpasses the known categories of ethnicity and class. Keywords: Cultural change, lo andino, ethnicity, tourism, Peruvian cuisine.
