  3. 3. Between an alternative modernity and alternatives to modernity? - A case study of the Tipnis-conflict within the Bolivian "Process of Change"

    Författare :Hansalbin Sältenberg; [2012]

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims at understanding, from a world-system analytical and decolonial perspective, the structural causes behind the outbreak of the Tipnis-conflict in Bolivia in 2011.
