The Bolivia Reader provides a panoramic view, from antiquity to the
present, of the history, culture, and politics of a country known
for its ethnic and regional diversity, its rich natural resources
and dilemmas of economic development, and its political conflict
and creativity. Featuring both classic and little-known texts
ranging from fiction, memoir, and poetry to government documents,
journalism, and political speeches, the volume challenges
stereotypes of Bolivia as a backward nation while offering insights
into the country's history of mineral extraction, revolution, labor
organizing, indigenous peoples' movements, and much more. Whether
documenting Inka rule or Spanish conquest, three centuries at the
center of Spanish empire, or the turbulent politics and cultural
vibrancy of the national period, these sources-the majority of
which appear in English for the first time-foreground the voices of
actors from many different walks of life. Unprecedented in scope,
The Bolivia Reader illustrates the historical depth and
contemporary challenges of Bolivia in all their complexity.
