title: Peruvian Ronda Campesina Patrol
description: >-
A peasant patrol and justice practice from northern Peru in which
community members take turns patrolling and resolving disputes, with no
state police involvement. The rondas campesinas emerged in the 1970s in
Cajamarca and are recognised under Peruvian law as a form of indigenous
justice.

steps:
- headline: Organise the rotation
description: >-
The community organises a rotating patrol (ronda) in which all
adult male members take turns, with no permanent police. Each
night's patrol is drawn from a different sector.
- headline: Patrol the community
description: >-
The night's ronda patrols the community, deterring livestock theft
and responding to disturbances. They report at dawn to the
rondal and the community.
- headline: Receive disputes
description: >-
The rondal and senior members receive disputes brought by community
members — theft, boundary conflicts, domestic disputes — and convene
a hearing.
- headline: Hear and resolve
description: >-
Both parties are heard. The ronda facilitates a resolution oriented
to repair — restitution, apology, community service — rather than
punishment. Decisions are public.
- headline: Enforce collectively
description: >-
The community collectively enforces the resolution. There is no
separate enforcement body; the ronda's authority rests on communal
participation.
outcome: >-
Community security and dispute resolution are maintained through
rotating participation, with justice oriented to repair and enforced
collectively.
practice: >-
The rotation is what makes the ronda legitimate — no one is police over
another. The form depends on universal participation; if some never
serve, it becomes a private force.
