Description

Bolivia attracts tourists and scholars from far and wide the world. The country is landlocked in the heart of South The united states, scenically breathtaking and immensely rich in natural resources but plagued by a history of political instability, military dictatorship, and rampant inflation. The previous few years, on the other hand, have seen dramatic changes as Bolivia has returned to democracy, and introduced bold new measures to rescue the economy, attract foreign investment, and raise living standards in its multi-ethnic society. This new edition of the bibliography records developments underway since the mid-1980s in addition to the problems that remain, not least those of illegal coca cultivation, cocaine-trafficking, and widespread poverty.
The 1,005 critical, annotated entries, drawn mainly from English-language sources, cover all major aspects of Bolivia, including its landscapes, wild life, resources, history (from prehistory to the present), politics, finance, employment, trade unions, foreign relations, agriculture, mining, religion, the arts, music, film, folk culture, rural and urban society, and gender issues. Together, they give you the most up-to-date and comprehensive bibliographic reference to be had on Bolivia. The volume will be of value to policy makers, business people, economists, educators, conservationists, medical body of workers, social workers, librarians, and researchers in both the sciences and the humanities. It is going to also assist tourists and travellers, in addition to general readers intrigued to know and be mindful more about this land.
