Description: "In Vol. 1 Lazarte focuses on crises faced by leftist parties in Bolivia, from the Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria and the Partido Comunista Boliviana during  Siles Zuazo's 1982-85 government to the crisis of the left during late 1980s-early 1990s. Vol. 2, the best of the series, examines political parties and problems of representative democracy. Vol. 3 compiles a wonderful set of short essays on the basic written and verbal norms of Bolivian democracy developed in the post-hyperinflation context and in the period of economic stabilization.  Particularly useful and insightful is 'Palenquismo y Neopopulismo,' an incisive description and analysis of the rise to political prominence, during late 1980s, of Conciencia de Patria (CONDEPA) and the late Carlos Palenque Aviles"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
