This book investigates decolonization as a local process and its
connections to international relations, introducing "internal
colonialism" as a crucial analytical category for
internationalists. Using Bolivia as a case study, the author argues
that the reshaping of colonialism and its resistance domestically
is also reflected and reproduced abroad by political actors, be
they the governments or indigenous movements. By problematizing
postcolonial debate concerning the constitution/reproduction of
colonial logics in International Relations, the book proposes a
return to the local to show how power relations are exercised
concretely by the protagonists of political process. Such dynamics
reveal the interrelationship between the local and the
international, especially, in which the latter represents a
necessary dimension to both reinforce colonialism and oppose
colonial logics. Of interest to scholars and students of IR, Latin
American and Andean Studies, this book will also appeal to those
working in the fields of area studies, anthropology, indigenous
politics, comparative politics, decolonization and political
ecology.
