Question

project on method of struggle of Bolivia water war

Answer 1

IN 1999, THE BOLIVIAN GOVERNMENT SELLED THE COCHABAMBA WATER COMPANY TO A group of national and foreign investors. Only three months later there was an unprecedented popular uprising in response to dramatic increases in service rates, intimate and subterranean relations between the state and the new consortium, and the forms of wealth that are subject to the appropriations of the state and private firms. This article analyzes the intersection of state, market and corruption under the new contradictions of jurisdiction produced under neoliberal conditions. It approaches neoliberalism as a process that erases the border between the state and the market and generates a simulacrum of social order, in which corruption and theft do not go against the state, but, on the contrary, are part of it.
