Agrarian Bonds In Peru
Beginning in 1969, the government of Peru issued sovereign bonds as compensation for land expropriation during the Peruvian land reform under General Juan Velasco Alvarado. The government's aim was to redistribute land and reform the country's agrarian infrastructure. Payments on these bonds halted in 1992 due to periods of hyperinflation. The agrarian bonds have been recognized as outstanding sovereign debt obligations by Peru's highest courts, who have stated that these bonds should be repaid. However, today the debt remains unpaid, and the government of Peru has yet to clarify means and ultimate value of compensation to current bondholders. Land reform bonds Beginning in 1969, the Peruvian government under General Velasco implemented a series of measures aimed at transforming the country's social landscape by addressing the wealth-distribution system, particularly the economic and land ownership system.

Peruvian Agrarian Reform
The Agrarian Reform in Peru was a process of land redistribution initiated in the 1960s by struggles of peasants for their land in the Cusco Region and legally implemented by three laws of land reform, of which the land reform law promulgated in 1969 under General Juan Velasco Alvarado changed the country's agrarian infrastructure from a system dominated by haciendas where the ''peones'' – in their majority indigenous peasants – worked for their ''patrones'', the ''hacendados'', in semi-feudal relationships, first to large cooperatives controlled by the state and then predominantly to land ownership by smallholders, in the Andes to a large extent within indigenous peasant communities ''(comunidades campesinas)'' recognized by the government. For the former ''hacendados'', the government of Peru issued agrarian bonds as compensation for land expropriation.

Arbitration
Arbitration is a form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) that resolves disputes outside the judiciary courts. The dispute will be decided by one or more persons (the 'arbitrators', 'arbiters' or 'arbitral tribunal'), which renders the 'arbitration award'. An arbitration decision or award is legally binding on both sides and enforceable in the courts, unless all parties stipulate that the arbitration process and decision are non-binding. Arbitration is often used for the resolution of commercial disputes, particularly in the context of international commercial transactions. In certain countries such as the United States, arbitration is also frequently employed in consumer and employment matters, where arbitration may be mandated by the terms of employment or commercial contracts and may include a waiver of the right to bring a class action claim. Mandatory consumer and employment arbitration should be distinguished from consensual arbitration, particularly commercial ...
