| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Latin America's leftward tide means a fresh landscape with regard to strategic affairs. Nowhere is this clearer than in the Bolivian case, where the election of Evo Morales and the rise of indigenismo signal a sweeping change in key matters of security, including those related to resource extraction, potential secession, and regional strategic realignment. The first half of this article is devoted to the context of political economy, which frames the appearance of new security themes. The second half of the piece analyses strategic changes that have accompanied a new economic model that features nationalisation and a radical redistribution of wealth. |
