Latin America scholar Thomas C. Field Jr. joins me to discuss the last six or so months in Bolivia, from the disputed October election to the ouster of President Evo Morales to the machinations of the post-coup government that replaced him. You can find Thomas on Twitter @thomascfield and you can find his books at lots of places, but Powell’s has them here and here. Apologies for a few glitchy moments but in my defense this time they were caused by Skype, not me personally. That’s progress, at least.

I mentioned a couple of relevant interviews during the interview, one with southern Altiplano peasant workers leader Ramiro Huayta that you can find here and another with MAS presidential candidate Luis Acre that’s available here.
