Bolivia : The Uncompleted Revolution Paperback / softback
by James Malloy
Part of the Pitt Latin American Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
The first book-length analysis of the Bolivian revolution by an American political scientist explains the events of 1952 as a Latin American case study, and links the theme of the revolution with other contemporary insurrections in underdeveloped countries.
Combining narrative excitement and scholarly analysis, the book pinpoints sources of weakness and stress in the Bolivian old order, with particular attention to the effects of uneven economic developments in the first two decades of the twentieth century.
It then focuses on the stormy years after 1936 that led up to the insurrection of April 9-11, 1952.
Finally, it examines attempts of the revolutionary government to promote economic development between 1952 and November 1964, when it was overthrown.
