| Abstract
|
:
|
"Electoral rules and the transformation of Bolivian politics: the rise of Evo Morales is the first book-length analysis of the rise in power of the [Bolivian] party Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) and its leader, President Evo Morales, in Bolivia. It examines the variations on electoral arrangements across time in this country, highlighting the most recent electoral reforms, and contends that the political outcomes of recent times in Bolivia are a byproduct of the electoral system. In doing this, the book offers an interesting contribution to the study of the Bolivian electoral system and recent political events in the country, in particular, and Latin American politics, in general."--Book cover.
