Summary:
"Luis Sierra treads new ground in his authoritative research on the influence of indigenous migration and the subsequent political activism of La Paz's urban inhabitants upon the transformation of Bolivia in the first half the 20th century. Sierra examines the role of the neighborhoods in the process of urbanization, a shift from the current focus on individuals"-- Provided by publisher.
