Description

Bolivia has long been neglected by North American historians and anthropologists. Now, writer Javier A. Galvan fills this gap with a book that analyzes the complex cultures of this South American nation throughout the context of its wealthy history and recent traditions.

The first half of this article is dedicated to how and where people live–detailed geography, social traditions, religious practices, political institutions, and Bolivian cuisine and culture. The various religious and linguistic traditions of the indigenous groups that comprise the vast majority of the national population are also described, giving readers a deeper appreciation for the diversity of Bolivia’s character. The second one half of the book explores the creative talent of Bolivians who’re advancing the literary movements, painting styles, architectural design, theater productions, fashion design, and emerging film industry of the country. Culture and Customs of Bolivia also features a detailed analysis of recent print and broadcasting media.
