Between 2000 and 2005, Bolivia was radically transformed by a series of popular indigenous uprisings against the country's neoliberal and antidemocratic policies. In \u003ci\u003eRhythms of the Pachakuti\u003c\/i\u003e, Raquel Gutiérrez Aguilar documents these mass collective actions, tracing the internal dynamics of such disruptions to consider how motivation and execution incite political change.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"In \u003ci\u003eRhythms of the Pachakuti\u003c\/i\u003e we can sense the reverberations of an extraordinary historical process that took place in Bolivia at the start of the twenty-first century. The book is the product of Raquel Gutiérrez Aguilar's political engagement in that historical process. . . . Though of Mexican nationality, [she] was intimately involved in Bolivian politics for many years and acquired a quasi-legendary status there as an intense, brilliant activist and radical intellectual. . . . [Her account is] . . . itself a revolutionary document. . . . \u003ci\u003eRhythms of the Pachakuti\u003c\/i\u003e deserves to stand as a key text in the international literature of radicalism and emancipatory politics in the new century.\"—Sinclair Thomson, from the foreword\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Raquel Gutiérrez Aguilar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53614203535740,"sku":"9780822356042","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0251\/4980\/0541\/files\/9780822356042_be203355-b3e4-4cf6-a86c-bc55ba984c9d.jpg?v=1725878618","url":"https:\/\/combined-academic.myshopify.com\/products\/rhythms-of-the-pachakuti","provider":"Combined Academic Publishers - Mare Nostrum Group","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
