description The objective of this article is twofold: on the one hand, to show the impacts of the presence of drug trafficking in the Ucayali region, to reveal a situation that, except in very rare cases, is not currently on the public agendas, among the political or economic priorities, in the parliamentary debates and in jurisdictional decisions. On the other hand, it is to make a direct and effective proposal to resolve the old and most recent dilemmas represented by drug trafficking related to cocaine and its derivatives, its causes, and consequences for the Indigenous Peoples who inhabit the Peruvian Amazon. The case of the Ucayali región, a strategic region located in the central Peruvian Amazon, región is taken. Official information from the Peruvian State, that comes from international organizations, as well as from the indigenous organizations and private entities that work in the región have been reviewed. The article concludes by identifying an order of actions that must be carried out by the Peruvian State in the Ucayali region, to achieve a closure of the historical social gaps that are found at the base of the territory where drug trafficking has been established.

El objetivo del presente artículo es doble. Por un lado, mostrar los impactos de la presencia del narcotráfico en la región de Ucayali, para revelar una situación que, salvo ocasiones muy raras, no está actualmente en las agendas públicas, entre las prioridades políticas y económicas, en los debates parlamentarios y en las decisiones jurisdiccionales. Por otro lado, hacer una propuesta directa y efectiva para resolver los viejos y los más recientes dilemas que representa el narcotráfico de cocaína y sus derivados, sus causas y consecuencias para los pueblos indígenas que habitan la Amazonía peruana. Se toma el caso de Ucayali, una región estratégica ubicada en la Amazonía central peruana. La investigación se nutre del análisis y el contraste entre la información oficial del Estado peruano, aquella que proviene de organismos internacionales, así como de las propias organizaciones indígenas y de entidades privadas que trabajan en dicha región. Como conclusión, se identifica un orden de acciones que el Estado peruano debe ejecutar en la región de Ucayali para cerrar las brechas sociales históricas que se encuentran en la base del territorio donde se ha asentado el narcotráfico.
