Revolutionary Horizons: Past and Present in Bolivian Politics

摘要

Bolivia is one of those small countries that actually makes the pages of international newspapers, most recently for the election of Latin America's first indigenous leader and the consequent reaction, both positive and negative, in the nation and beyond. These two books, in contrasting ways, provide invaluable contexts to current events: one, Revolutionary Horizons, was written in direct response to the dramatic, even revolutionary, developments; the other, Bolivia, is a collection of essays mostly written long before Evo Morales was a political player on the national scene.
