Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1999. Despite the attempts of a number of Latin American republics to redistribute land resources and carry out agrarian reform programmes, ’the land question’ remains a vital political issue throughout the region. This book focuses on Bolivia, where government proposals to replace a radical agrarian reform law of 1953 with a neo-liberal Ley INRA provoked heated public debate and violent campesino clashes with the police (witnessed by the author) in September/October 1996. The first five chapters are largely concerned with theoretical aspects and a review of Bolivia’s agrarian reform legislation: the remaining six chapters are devoted to an analysis, from the viewpoints of participant campesinos and the researcher, of agricultural change in Aymara communities beside Lake Titicaca, where the author has conducted research over nearly 30 years. Currently lakeside farming is under severe threat as a result of land degradation, limited cash resources, rural-urban migration, tourism and commuterisation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fields of Revolution examines the second largest case of peasant land redistribution in Latin America and agrarian reform—arguably the most important policy to arise out of Bolivia’s 1952 revolution. Competing understandings of agrarian reform shaped ideas of property, productivity, welfare, and justice. Peasants embraced the nationalist slogan of “land for those who work it” and rehabilitated national union structures. Indigenous communities proclaimed instead “land to its original owners” and sought to link the ruling party discourse on nationalism with their own long-standing demands for restitution. Landowners, for their part, embraced the principle of “land for those who improve it” to protect at least portions of their former properties from expropriation. Carmen Soliz combines analysis of governmental policies and national discourse with everyday local actors’ struggles and interactions with the state to draw out the deep connections between land and people as a material reality and as the object of political contention in the period surrounding the revolution.

Book excerpt: This dissertation examines the role of peasants, the state, and military actors in negotiating rule amidst rural transformations wrought by revolution and agrarian reform in the aftermath of Bolivia's 1952 Revolution. The Revolution introduced three key reforms: universal suffrage, nationalization of mining enterprises, and agrarian reform. Through agrarian reform, unionized peasants became essential to the negotiation of rule and remained so for two decades. State agents sought to subordinate and control peasant actors through patron-client linkages that stretched from the level of the national government into local provinces. In the important test case of the Valle Alto of Cochabamba, however, peasants' actions demonstrated that subordination to the state was, at best, incomplete. Led by charismatic and ambitious dirigentes, peasants vacillated between autonomous action and acquiescence to state agents, retaining significant control over the Valle Alto's geography of power, in part through the local use of political violence. Indeed, violent conflict among peasants-best exemplified by a five-year civil war in the early 1960s-illustrated the limits of state power. The revolutionary state's impotence manifested in the 1964 transition to military rule, which garnered broad popular support from the Valle Alto peasants. Scholars have long described the Bolivian revolutionary project as a homogenizing and subordinating force, particularly for peasant communities. This dissertation, however, positions the Valle Alto region-crucial precisely because state networks were reputed to have been so powerful and developed there-more subtly. Known as a stronghold of state cooptation of peasants but also as the cradle of revolutionary peasant politics, the paradox of the Valle Alto was that state power fell far short of a directive role, even as local relationships with state actors proved important to negotiating rule and legitimacy successfully at both the local and national levels. Peasants retained degrees of autonomy in their relationship with the state, carving out space for local power even as state actors sought to coopt their politics. Peasants and their leaders sought to link their political project with the revolutionary state, and consciously engaged subsequent military states, despite clear signs that state agents sought to control their politics.
