The ensuing period, known simply as \"el proceso de cambio\" (the process of change), has been a tension-filled and contradictory process involving progressive transformations, ambiguous continuities, and outright revolutionary failures. Importantly, the contradictions have been just as much ideological as they are material. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e By examining and illuminating the contrasting logics underlying opposing theories of revolutionary change, \u003ci\u003eVisions of Transformation\u003c\/i\u003e provides an analytical framework through which to understand and interpret the central conflicts and contradictions of Bolivia under Evo Morales and the Movimiento al Socialismo. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Based on nearly two years of immersive fieldwork, \u003ci\u003eVisions of Transformation\u003c\/i\u003e explores the relation between theoretical production and political practice. Through the contrasting perspectives of hegemony and plurinationality, the book analyzes three specific conjunctural moments--a proposed highway through the TIPNIS, a conflict over representation of the highland Indigenous movement organization CONAMAQ, and the struggle for Indigenous autonomy--to shed light on the primary economic, social, political, and theoretical tensions at the heart of Bolivia's proceso de cambio. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAaron Augsburger is an assistant professor in the School of Interdisciplinary Global Studies at the University of South Florida.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 266\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.9 x 9.1 x 6.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 22, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45862655361221,"sku":"9780816555208","price":171.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/PkuLjbekd9780816555208.webp?v=1771571616","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/visions-of-transformation-hegemony-plurinationality-and-revolution-in-bolivia-hardcover","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
