The first book-length analysis of the Bolivian revolution by an
American political scientist explains the events of 1952 as a Latin
American case study, and links the theme of the revolution with
other contemporary insurrections in underdeveloped countries.
Combining narrative excitement and scholarly analysis, the book
pinpoints sources of weakness and stress in the Bolivian old order,
with particular attention to the effects of uneven economic
developments in the first two decades of the twentieth century. It
then focuses on the stormy years after 1936 that led up to the
insurrection of April 9-11, 1952. Finally, it examines attempts of
the revolutionary government to promote economic development
between 1952 and November 1964, when it was overthrown.
