Indigeneity and Decolonization in the Bolivian Andes: Ritual Practice and Activism

Anders Burman, "Indigeneity and Decolonization in the Bolivian Andes: Ritual Practice and Activism"
English | ISBN: 1498538487 | 2016 | 282 pages | EPUB | 946 KB

Indigeneity and Decolonization in the Bolivian Andes: Ritual Practice and Activism explores how Evo Morales’s victory in the 2005 Bolivian presidential elections led to indigeneity as the core of decolonization politics. Anders Burman analyzes how indigenous Aymara ritual specialists are essential in representing this indigeneity in official state ceremony and in legitimizing the president’s role as “the indigenous president.” This book goes behind the scenes of state-sponsored multiculturalist ritual practices and explores the political, spiritual and existential dimensions underpinning them.
