The book by Lourdes Flores Bordais, entitled Mariátegui, los communists y los miners del centro, comes to the public at a troubled moment in the class struggle in Peru and, in general, throughout Latin America. The situation requires good analyses, good understanding of the composition of social classes, the role of imperialist capital and landlordism in each social formation on the continent. Bordais's book, despite its historiographical and sociological character limited to the 1920s and 1930s, is fortunate to illuminate points of latent Peruvian history as a tragedy today. It provides us with a brief systematization of the history of the mining workers' movement in Peru, its beginnings and the first years of organization and union struggle in the Sierra Central. In addition, it deepens the understanding of the life and work of José Carlos Mariátegui, one of the main Latin American Marxists. As Michael Loẅy states in the preface to this edition: “[...] we have, for the first time, an in-depth study of a little-known chapter in the life of Amauta: his commitment to the struggle of the Peruvian miners” (Bordais, 2021, p. 11).
