Bolivia is a country with a long tradition of anti-colonial and class struggles.  Colonial and communitarian ways of life have co-existed since the foundation of the Republic in 1825 in an ʽagreed truceʼ with the state.

Contemporary Bolivia has broken this stalemate and is now experiencing the most radical social transformation, summarized by President Evo Morales, an Aymara, as a ʽfarewell to colonialismʼ. I argue that it is decolonization of citizenship, leading to the New Constitution of Bolivia, rather than liberal emancipation that has opened new possibilities not envisioned before in politics, the economy, gender and the environment.
