A Revolution in Fragments

The years between 2006 and 2015 during which Evo Morales became Bolivia's first indigenous president have been described as a time of democratic and cultural revolution world renewal (Pachakuti) reconstituted neoliberalism or simply the process of change. In <i>A Revolution in Fragments</i> Mark Goodale unpacks these various analytical and ideological frameworks to reveal the fragmentary and contested nature of Bolivia's radical experiments in pluralism ethnic politics and socioeconomic planning. Privileging the voices of social movement leaders students indigenous intellectuals women's rights activists and many others Goodale uses contemporary Bolivia as an ideal case study with which to theorize the role that political agency identity and economic equality play within movements for justice and structural change.
