The struggle for local independence and self-determination : an interview with Don Roman Loayza, the first peasant elected to the Bolivian Parliament

Auteur :
RIST, S.

Description :
Roman Loayza makes a cogent argument for greater peasant participation in development planning. He believes that the economic and social situation now for the peoples of indigenous cultures in Bolivia (Quechua, Aymara, Tupi-guaraní) is worse than ever. He wants a recovery of native cultures and a recovery of native traditions that help one live in harmony with Pachamama (Mother Earth). - (SLD)
