Abstract

The hostage case that occurred at the Japanese Ambassador's official residence in Peru in December 1996 and lasted for 127 days was so sensational that it occupied considerable space in Japanese newspapers for many days. The positive aspect of this phenomenon was contributing to newspaper readers' accumulation of knowledge about Peru. However, we should pay attention to the fact that the newspaper reports related to this issue were not necessarily enough to provide an objective regional understanding of Peru. This paper discusses the image formation of Peru through the Japanese regional newspaper reports on the extraordinary case which took place in Peru.
