From the National Revolution to the Victory of Evo Morales.
A Review of a Half Century of Struggles in Popular Bolivia (1952-2007)
The « Bolivian democratic and cultural revolution », often presented as a symbol of the leftward turn of
Latin America, and which is led by Evo Morales, is without doubt part of the country's nationalist and
anti-oligarchic tradition, fruit of the revolution of 1952. The current revolutionary phase cannot however
be entirely reduced to this tradition, insofar as it illustrates the profound upheavals which the popular
movement has undergone since the 1980s, during a period marked by the brutality of neo-liberal reforms
and by the emergence of the “native American peasant” as the exemplary agent of “Insurgent Bolivia”.
Bolstered by the support of a rural and plebeian base, the Morales “revolution” differs from previous revolutionary experiences by way of the resolutely anti-imperialist nature of its politics. The current nationalist cycle thus takes on an innovative, unprecedented perspective of social emancipation. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
