The Communist Party of Peru – Shining Path (CPP-SP),[a] more commonly known as the Shining Path, is a Marxist-Leninist-Maoist party and guerrilla organization in Peru founded in 1969 after an organizational split with the Peruvian Communist Party – Red Flag.
Using its militant wing, the People's Guerrilla Army, the PCP has been engaged in a Protracted People's War against the bourgeois government of Peru since 1980, with the intention of creating of Socialist state and ultimately reaching Communism.[1]
The PCP rejected all self-proclaimed Socialist states at that time, viewing them as revisionist and having restored Capitalism, and firmly based its ideology on the teaching of Mao Zedong, with which they developed his ideas into Marxism-Lenin-Maoism, a universal form of Mao Zedong Thought.[2]
The party, founded and led by Abimael Guzmán, has recived criticism for its large centralization of its leadership,[3] and alleged crimes it had commited during the People's War against the brutal semi-Fascist government that had existed.[4][5]
