The Shining Path

The Communist Party of Peru – Shining Path (Spanish: Partido Comunista del Perú – Sendero Luminoso, PCP-SL), commonly shortened to the Shining Path (Sendero Luminoso), is a communist guerrilla group in Peru following Marxism–Leninism–Maoism and Gonzalo Thought.

When it first launched during the internal conflict in Peru in 1980, its goal was to overthrow the state by guerrilla warfare and replace it with a New Democracy. The PCP-SL believed that by establishing a dictatorship of the proletariat, inducing a cultural revolution, and eventually sparking a world revolution, they could arrive at full communism. Their representatives stated that the then-existing socialist countries were revisionist, and the Shining Path was the vanguard of the world communist movement. The PCP-SL's ideology and tactics have influenced other Maoist insurgent groups such as the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist Centre) and other Revolutionary Internationalist Movement-affiliated organizations. The Peruvian guerrillas were unique in that they had a high proportion of women; 50% of the combatants and 40% of the commanders were women.

The Shining Path has been widely condemned for its brutality, including violence deployed against peasants, trade union organizers, competing Marxist groups, elected officials and the general public. The Shining Path is regarded as a terrorist organization by many nations.
