  abstract = {{I}n subduction settings, the tectonic regime of the overriding plate is closely related to the geometry of the subducting plate. {F}lat-slab segments are supposed to increase coupling at the plate interface in the {A}ndes, resulting in an increase and eastward migration of the shortening in the overriding plate. {A}bove the {P}eruvian flat-slab, a 200 km-long normal fault trend parallel to the range and delimits the western flank of the {C}ordillera {B}lanca. {I}n a context of flat subduction, expected to produce shortening, the presence of the {C}ordillera {B}lanca normal fault ({CBNF}) is surprising. {W}e performed a systematic inversion of striated fault planes in the {C}ordillera {B}lanca region to better characterize the stress field above the {P}eruvian flat-slab. {I}t evidences the succession of different tectonic regimes. {NE}-{SW} extension is predominant in most of the sites indicating a regional extension. {W}e suggest that the {P}eruvian flat-slab trigger extension in the {W}estern {C}ordillera while the shortening migrated eastward. {F}inally, we propose that flat-slab segments do not increase the coupling at the trench neither the shortening in the overriding plate but only favor shortening migration backward. {H}owever, the stress field of the overriding plate arises from the evolution of plate interface properties through time due to bathymetric anomaly migration.},
