Addressing the problem of the traditional relegation of certain sectors of the population, the Peruvian state has established quotas for the participation of women, youths and indigenous people in the lists for popular elections. Although none of these measures applies to all of the electoral processes, it is the so-called "native quota" that seems to present the greatest challenges. With the Regional and Municipal Elections of 2014 having been called, this article reviews their main characteristics, analyzing both the results and the new features introduced into the process, the same ones that constitute a milestone in the history of the country regarding the treatment of this population in electoral terms.

The aim of this work is to show how get unfolded the relationship between municipal territorial configuration and politic representation in three cities --London, Rio de Janeiro and Medellin--, with the purpose to explore the conditions and historical-territorial processes that have enabled or inhibited political and administrative decentralization and citizen participation in the municipal government and in their respective sub-municipal territorial units, call them comunas, boroughs or Administrative Regions. We start problematizing the notions of political and administrative decentralization and citizen participation from the perspective of territorial political community (polity), category where we integrate contributions and discussions of authors such as Dahl, Castoriadis, Raffestin, Habermas, Lefebvre and Harvey. After that we show the current disposition of the politicaladministrative division of each city, comparing how are or not shaped areas of citizen participation and political representation into their jurisdictions. Given the large differences observed, the work proceeds in a historical and territorial examination of the political-regulatory national contexts and territorial processes in the formation of urban and municipal political space in each city, examining the existence or not of historical matrices of territorial production and political participation that helps to explain these differences.
