Description:
How is global and political economic restructuring affecting impoverished states and transforming the daily lives of ordinary people? This book offers a critique "from below" of what has been called neoliberalism -- the latest set of capitalist-inspired policies that posit "the market" as the remedy for all social and economic problems. The author focuses on the ways in which poor men's and women's relationships to each other, the state, and an array of international organizations are changing in a impoverished city on the periphery of La Paz, the Bolivian capital. A major goal is to understand ordinary people's changing sense of what is, and is not, possible, collectively and individually, after more than a decade of economic reform.
