Summary note
This study of Bolivia uses Cochabamba as a laboratory to examine the long-term transformation of native Andean society into a vibrant Quechua-Spanish-mestizo region of haciendas and smallholdings, towns and villages, peasant markets and migratory networks, all caught in the web of Spanish imperial politics and economics. Combining ethnohistory and economic and social history, Brooke Larson shows how the contradictions of class and colonialism eventually gave rise to new peasant, artisan, and laboring groups that challenged the evolving structures of colonial domination. This expanded edition includes a new final chapter that explores the book's implications for understanding the formation of a distinctive peasant and political culture in the Cochabamba valleys over the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. -- From publisher's description.
