Despite the attempts of a number of Latin American republics to redistribute land resources and carry out agrarian reform programmes, the land question remains a vital political issue throughout the region. This book focuses on Bolivia, where government proposals to replace a radical agrarian reform law of 1953 with a neo-liberal Ley INRA provoked heated public debate and violent campesino clashes with the police in September/October 1996.
