What's Next for Peru?


POLITICS
Fujimori's departure could spark a political free-for-all. Whether the transition goes smoothly will depend greatly on the conduct of the armed forces.

THE ECONOMY
Growth will slow this year as investors retreat to the sidelines.

THE SOCIAL SCENE
A pitched Presidential contest could ignite social and ethnic tensions.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS
Pressure from foreign governments, in particular the U.S. and Canada, and the Organization of American States could help ensure timely and free elections.
