Building on the theoretical traditions of revolutionary Marxism and indigenous liberation, this book provides an analytical framework for understanding the fine-grained sociological and political nuances of twenty-first century Bolivian class-struggle, state-repression, and indigenous resistance, as well the deeply historical roots of today’s oppositional traditions. Drawing on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, including more than 80 in-depth interviews with social-movement and trade-union activists, Red October is a ground-breaking intervention in the study of contemporary Bolivia and the wider Latin American turn to the left over the last decade.Historical materialism book series ;29.Social movementsBoliviaSocial changeBoliviaSocial conflictBoliviaIndians of South AmericaBoliviaPolitics and governmentIndians of South AmericaBoliviaGovernment relationsPeasantsPolitical activityBoliviaRight and left (Political science)BoliviaBoliviaPolitics and government21st centuryElectronic books.Social movementsSocial changeSocial conflictIndians of South AmericaPolitics and government.Indians of South AmericaGovernment relations.PeasantsPolitical activityRight and left (Political science)303.48/408998084Webber Jeffery R867948MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910457740903321Red October2051486UNINA
