Assessing Evo's Bolivia
This essay reviews the following works:When Movements Become Parties: The Bolivian MAS in Comparative Perspective. By Santiago Anria. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2018. Pp. xxi + 275. $135.00 hardcover. ISBN: 9781789202199
Indigenous Empowerment in Evo Morales's Bolivia
The Morales administration sought to give indigenous peoples more rights and greater influence in government, effectively breaking down traditional patterns of exclusion
A Different Path for Rural America
A dominant narrative in the United States posits that rural out-migration and social decline of rural areas and small towns is inevitable. Although there is evidence of that view, there are also positive signs that point to the vitality of rural America. Although rural areas are losing population, that is partly a statistical artifact, since any rural area that succeeds in growing may be reclassified as an urban area, thus incorrectly seeming to …
Funding Local Government
While decentralisation, properly understood, implies that sub-national government involves devolution of authority over revenues, recent experience fromPeru suggests that the canon system tends to create perverse incentives in encouraging open and democratic government at the local level. This is particularly the case in regions such asCusco, which benefit disproportionately from this system. Examination of experiences in four provinces ofCusco s…

Democracy without Parties? Some Lessons from Peru
Thirty years on from Peru's return to democracy in 1980, the country's record with democratisation has been chequered. Not only was the process of 'consolidation' reversed in the 1990s under the Fujimori government, but the degree to which durable linkages have been established between state and society is very limited. More than in most countries of Latin America, the party system has failed to fulfil the representative role allotted to it in th…
Unresolved Tensions
The landslide election of Evo Morales in December 2005 pointed toward a process of accelerated change in Bolivia, forging a path away from globalization and the neoliberal paradigm in favor of greater national control and state intervention. This in turn shifted the power relations of Bolivia's internal politics - beginning with greater inclusion of the indigenous population - and altered the nation's foreign relations. Unresolved Tensions engage…
Patterns of Protest
The impact of neo-liberal economics on peruvian peasant agriculture in the 1990s
The Collapse of Fujimorismo
The resignation of Alberto Fujimori as president of Peru and the convening of fresh elections for 2001 invites a reassessment of the strengths and weaknesses of the Fujimorato. Fujimori's was a hybrid regime, an uneasy admixture of democratic and autocratic elements. While following prescribed election timetables and tolerating certain opposition, this was an authoritarian government. Grounded on a pact with the armed forces and involving a conce…
Populisms old and new
President Fujimori is often seen as exemplary of the Latin American "neopopulist". Having inherited a country in crisis, he managed to engineer profound changes in the economic sphere, legitimising his government through a direct rapport with the mass of the population that marginalised representative institutions. This article seeks to place this "neopopulism" in an historical context by focusing on the socio-economic and political characteristi…
Populismo y neopopulismo
The article examines the populist tradition in Peru's political development over the last fifty years, seeking to draw attention to some of the continuities in the political practice of successive regimes, albeit ones of different ideological orientations. In so doing, it seeks to define 'populism' as a style of government which links the rulers with the ruled bypassing representative systems of political mediation. Whilst typically populism emer…
Snowfields
British journalist Hargreaves examines the cocaine industry in Bolivia, which has tripled since the US instigated drug-war against Colombians. She interviews dealers, growers, addicts, and officials of both the Bolivian and US government, and concludes that the trade must be stopped at the demand en

The consolidation of Alan Garcia's Government in Peru
When Alan GarcLa Perez received the presidential sash from Fernando Belauinde on 28 July 1985, most observers thought that the 'honeymoon' period of the new government would not last for long. Despite the size of the Alianza Popular Revolucionaria Americana (APRA) victory in the 1985 elections, the problems faced by the new president were formidable. There were problems with debt repayments to foreign creditors, many of whom had not received inte…
