Description

Bolivia is one of South America's most complex nations.

From its pre-colonial civilizations to its contemporary political landscape, Bolivia offers a compelling case study of enduring transformation across political, social and economic domains. This volume provides a comprehensive examination of Bolivia's diverse cultural and ethnic composition, shaped by its indigenous majority alongside mestizo, Afro-Bolivian, and European populations. It analyzes the evolution of Bolivia's political institutions, social movements, and economic frameworks. Among Latin American nations, Bolivia is notable for having undergone a significant national revolution, being an early adopter of neoliberal economic reforms in the region, and serving as an early indicator of the rise of the “Pink Tide” in Latin America.

Historical Dictionary of Bolivia contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section contains cross-referenced entries on important personalities as well as aspects of the country's politics, economy, foreign relations, religion, and culture. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Bolivia.
