Popular Action (Peru)
The Popular Action ( es, Acción Popular, AP) is a liberal and reformist political party in Peru, founded by former Peruvian president Fernando Belaúnde Terry. History Early history Fernando Belaúnde founded Popular Action (''Acción Popular'') in 1956 as a reformist alternative to the status quo conservative forces and the populist American Popular Revolutionary Alliance party.

It also advocated scientific advancement and technocracy, a policy set that it took from the Progressive Social Movement, a splinter party which it eventually absorbed. The AP had significant electoral success, attaining the presidency in 1963 and 1980, but the party was more of an electoral machine for the pers ...
