Bolivia: Introduction
Background: Bolivia, named after independence fighter Simon BOLIVAR, broke away from Spanish rule in 1825; much of its subsequent history has consisted of a series of nearly 200 coups and counter-coups. Comparatively democratic civilian rule was established in the 1980s, but leaders have faced difficult problems of deep-seated poverty, social unrest, and drug production. Current goals include attracting foreign investment, strengthening the educational system, continuing the privatization program, and waging an anti-corruption campaign.

Abstract
1. Introduction
Since the emergence of the globalisation phenomenon in the late 1970s debates have raged about its nature, its extent, and the speed with which it has gathered force and acquired new spheres of influence both across the globe and within diverse sectors of life. In particular, its emphasis on the commodification of cultural, technical and economic resources has raised questions about the extent to which processes of globalisation (and the theorisation of these processes) are inherently gendered, racist and ethnocentric (Harvey, 1996; Marchand, 1994; Helwege, 1995; Landau, 1996; Richards, 1997; Turner, 1996; Vergara, 1996). Such debates, coinciding with the re-drawing of the geo-political map in the post-cold war period and the emergence of new economic trading blocks and political superstructures, have led many to question whether globalisation is causing the decline of 'the state' as the most important site of politicking.

Bolivia
A South American republic which lies between longitudes west of Greenwich 57 deg. 30' and 74 deg., and latitudes 8 deg. and 22 deg. 50' south. These figures are, however, still subject to treaty changes.
AREA, POPULATION, ETC.
The republic covers an area of 702,767 sq. miles (1,822,334 sq. kilometers) and ranks as third in size among the South American countries. In 1905 its population was estimated at 1,816,271, or a little more than five persons to every two square miles. Of these, 231,088 are reported as whites; 484,611 as mestizos, and 792,850 as Indians. Besides these, there were about 4,000 negroes, and the residue are of unascertained origin. The proportion of Catholics to non-Catholics is approximately as seventy-two to one. All these figures are taken with reserve, since the efforts at serious statistics are but very recent. Since the close of the war with Chile in 1881, Bolivia has had no sea-coast. It is bounded on the west, north-west, and north by Peru; on the north-east and east by Brazil; on the south-east by Paraguay; on the south by the Argentine Republic, and on the south-west by Chile. Its communications with the outer world were still defective in 1905. A line of steamers on the Lake Titicaca then plied between the Peruvian port of Puno and the Bolivian of Huaqui, and stage lines, between La Paz and the Chilian frontier. On the east side of the Andes, in the Basin of the Amazon, rivers, which are often interrupt ed in their upper course by rapids (cachuelas) afford the only means of transit. Bolivia had two short railroad lines of its own, besides the Chilian line to Oruro, of which the terminus is upon Bolivian soil. The two Bolivian railroads were trunk-lines, with an aggregate length of sixty-five miles. Work was, however, progressing on several other newly begun lines.

    GEOGRAPHY
    Bolivia Table of Contents Landlocked Bolivia sits astride the Andes in the west-central part of the South American continent. With an area of 1,098,581 square kilometers, the country is about the size of Texas and California combined, or twice the size of Spain. Bolivia has 6,083 kilometers of land boundaries, which adjoin five countries. The country is bounded by Brazil to the north and east, Paraguay to the southeast, Argentina to the south, Chile to the southwest, and Peru to the northwest.
    Natural Regions
    Stretching in a broad arc across western Bolivia, the Andes define the country's three geographic zones: the mountains and Altiplano in the west, the semitropical Yungas and temperate valleys of the eastern mountain slopes, and the tropical lowlands or plains (llanos) of the eastern lowlands, or Oriente. The Andes run in two great parallel ranges or cordilleras. The western range (Cordillera Occidental) runs along the Peruvian and Chilean borders. The eastern range (Cordillera Oriental) is a broad and towering system of mountains stretching from Peru to Argentina. Between the two ranges lies the Altiplano, a lofty plateau 805 kilometers long and 129 kilometers wide.
    Mountains and Altiplano
    The Cordillera Occidental is a chain of dormant volcanoes and solfataras, volcanic vents emitting sulfurous gases. Bolivia's highest peak, the snowcapped Sajama (6,542 meters), is located here. The entire cordillera is of volcanic origin and an extension of the volcanic region found in southern Peru. Most of the northern part of this range has an elevation of about 4,000 meters; the southern part is somewhat lower. Rainfall, although scanty everywhere, is greater in the northern half, where the land is covered with scrub vegetation. The southern area receives almost no precipitation, and the landscape consists mostly of barren rocks. All of the Cordillera Occidental region is sparsely populated, and the south is virtually uninhabited.

    Bolivia - Geography
    By Ekaterina Zhdanova-Redman Do you like animals? Maybe you have a pet of your own. Do you have a dog, or maybe a cat? Some people keep birds and some keep fish, maybe you do, too. Are there animals around where you liveanimals that live outside? You probably see birds outside everyday. What other animals do you see outside where you live?
    There is a country in South America where there are lots of animals. In this country, there are many unique animals. Some of these animals are unlike any animals you've seen. And this country has more kinds of animals than anywhere else in South America. This country is called Bolivia.
    Bolivia is located in central South America. Many countries border Bolivia. Peru, Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina, and Chile all border Bolivia. It is the fifth-largest country in South America. The capital of Bolivia is a city called La Paz.

    Bolivia - Geography and Environment
    Looking over Bolivia, from mountains to tower blocks. Bolivia is in central South America, landlocked between Chile, Peru, Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina. The huge expanse of Lake Titicaca, north-west of the Bolivian capital, La Paz, is the highest navigable body of water in the world. The road from La Paz to Alto Beni high on the forested mountains Almost half of all Bolivians live on the altiplano, a high, cool plateau that extends between the two spines of the Andean mountain range. Drought is a major problem here, but the wet season brings problems too, as heavy rains can quickly flood the hard ground.
    Environment
    Besides the altiplano, Bolivia has areas of rainforest, tropical valleys, and fertile sub-tropical plains. There are major deposits of silver, tin, and zinc. The chief threats to the environment come from mining, and the unrestricted clearance of forests. Introduction History
