Go on Country – Social Integration Party (Spanish:Avanza País – Partido de Integración Social) is aconservative liberalpolitical party inPeru . In 2020, almost 15 years since its last participation in a general election, economistHernando de Soto registered in the party in order to run for the presidency at the2021 general election.[12] He placed fourth in the election.[13][14]
In early 2005,a party under the same name registered in the National Elections Jury and participated in the2006 general election.[15] At thelegislativeelections held on 9 April 2006, the party won 1.1% of the popular vote but no seats in theCongress of the Republic and its presidential ticket itself attained 0.2%, placing fourteenth nationally.[16] After losing its formal registration as a political organization, the party began a re-founding stage on May 10, 2017, culminating in a new registration on the same year.[17]
In thelegislative election held on 26 January 2020, the party won 2.5% of the popular vote but no seats in theCongress of the Republic, as it failed to pass once again the 5% electoral threshold.[18] In thelegislative election held on 11 April 2021, the party won 7.5% of the popular vote and 7 seats in theCongress of the Republic.
In December 2021, Hernando de Soto left the party following a dispute for its control between Aldo Borrero Rojas, the leader of the party, and Edwin de la Cruz Ponce, the general secretary, who was previously removed but continued to denounce his removal.[19][20] Following his departure, De Soto described the party as being far-right after members of Advance Country supported amnesty for authorities following massacres inAyacucho andJuliaca during thewidespread protests against PresidentDina Boluarte.[21]
The original iteration of the party described itself as acentrist party in support ofsocial democracy andsocial conservatism, whileInfobae described it asultranationalist in 2006.[22] More recently, the party has been described as a supporter offar-right politics, though somemedia in Peru describe the party ascenter-right. Its members in theCongress of Peru have been described as being part of a "far-right" bloc allied withPopular Force andPopular Renewal.
Representatives of the party signed theMadrid Charter, an anti-leftist manifesto organized by the conservative Spanish partyVox.[23][24][25] Economically, the party embracesclassical liberalism andeconomic liberalism, generally supporting free markets.
The party does not have an official stance on social issues as it once did, as can be evidenced by the fact that the respective leading figures for de Soto's presidential campaign, Instituto Politico para la Libertad Peru (IPL) vice president, Beltrán Gomez Hijar, and IPL member and congressmanAlejandro Cavero, have supported pro-LGBT andpro-choice causes, whereas congresswomanAdriana Tudela, daughter of formerVice PresidentFrancisco Tudela, is opposed to abortion.[26][27]
Under de Soto's leadership, the party is described by analysts and pundits asright-leaning on the political spectrum.[28] According toGeorgetown University political scientist Eliana Carlín, de Soto was the one who chose the party for his election run, and the party welcomed him due to his international prominence in the economic academia. In Carlin's opinion, the party is an "electoral vehicle" that reached an agreement with de Soto and that "they are not interested in ideology".[29]
Go on Country, in a journalistic column ofRPP, was accused of surrogacy due to the incorporation of members who had no relationship with the party months prior.[30] Despite this, party president Pedro Cenas rejected the notion of his party functioning as a surrogate and stated that "politics is not a commodity, but an act of faith and integration".[31]
