The poorest country in South America, its society is divided into the rich and the very poor. Now, there is a new fault line --globalization. In a recent referendum, voters decided to allow more exports of the country s lucrative natural gas reserves, which will earn the country much needed foreign revenue. The exporting of natural gas is an explosive issue in Bolivia, where public anger at proposals to ship the gas out of Chilean ports toppled the government in October, 2003. Native Indians reinforced the anti-globalization movement when they organized against the privatization of water by the multi-national corporation Bechtel. As Professor Roberto Fernandez, Cochabamba University, points out: "It was theft. Bechtel was stealing from people what they had invested in their small neighborhoods. The water war ... opened a broad path for the popular movement." 001355703 521__ $$aFor High School; College; Adult audiences. 001355703 546__ $$aThis edition in English. 001355703 651_0 $$aBolivia. 001355703 653_0 $$aEconomics 001355703 653_0 $$aPolitics 001355703 655_7 $$aDocumentary films.$$2lcgft 001355703 7761_ $$cOriginal$$w(OCoLC)747796403 001355703 85640 $$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1641240 001355703 901__ $$aASP1641240/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25219$$tbiblio 001355703 905__ $$uadmin 001355703 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1355703$$pGLOBAL_SET 001355703 944__ $$a1784574 001355703 945__ $$aThe Whole World$$cMiddle East 001355703 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001355703 980__ $$aBIB 001355703 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001355703 983__ $$aOnline
