Abstract:
The article concerns contemporary folk art in Peru and Bolivia. The local retablos are described, their history from colonial period and their new functions in the present time are presented. Traditional products of artesanía have been converted from sacred objects into ones that comment actual political-social changes. The author focuses on examples from the civil war period in Peru 1980–2000 and these from 2005–2009 from Bolivia. Peruvian retablos from Ayacucho region show tragic events of civil war, violence against indigenous Indians, fights and women tragic fate. Bolivian retablos show different type of events – Evo Morales access to power and watershed changes in Bolivian society in which subjectivity of indigenous Indians were restored.

Abstract:
Abstract Immunology is typically first encountered by students in advanced college or graduate courses. Additional challenges to teaching immunology exist in the developing world, where limited resources require curricula balancing state-of-the-art knowledge with region-specific practical considerations. Project-based teaching is especially difficult to execute due to lack of infrastructure and teacher training. Here, we report the results of implementing short hands-on low-cost microbiology and immunology courses for high school and college students in Bolivia. This initiative, “Clubes de Ciencia Bolivia”, brings graduate students and postdoctoral fellows from research institutions in developed nations to teach weeklong intensive courses in Bolivia. These courses (“clubes”) feature project-based and active learning components and are designed and taught with local Bolivian science instructors. Our approach was effective at transmitting concepts in microbiology and immunology, as measured by subject-specific test scores before and after course completion. Importantly, student learning was not significantly affected by their background, education level, socioeconomic status, or initial interest in the specific course taken. Moreover, participants reported a heightened interest in scientific careers after course completion. Strikingly, participants scored higher in subject-specific tests than Bolivian college students who had taken related semester-long college courses. Altogether, these data indicate that participatory learning for immunology in a developing nation can be used to effectively transmit knowledge. Similar approaches are likely to drive scientific engagement in other developing economies.

Jurisdiction. 20 ICSID Review: Foreign Investment Law Journal 450 (2005).International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, October 21, 2005.In Aguas del Tunari v. Republic of Bolivia, an International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) tribunal held that it had jurisdiction under the Netherlands-Bolivia bilateral investment treaty (BIT) over a claim against Bolivia brought by a Bolivian company owned primarily by two companies— one American and one Spanish—through Dutch intermediaries. The tribunal found that the Dutch intermediaries “controlled” the Bolivian company and that jurisdiction existed notwithstanding that the dispute related to a concession agreement with a choice-of-forum clause designating Bolivian courts.The origin of the dispute lay in Bolivia's attempt in the late 1990s to privatize the water service in Cochabamba, its third largest city. In September 1999, Bolivia awarded a forty-year concession agreement to a Bolivian company, Aguas del Tunari, S.A. (AdT), for the exclusive provision of water services in the city.

Abstract:
AbstractDrawing on archives from the US labour movement, personal papers of transnational labour organisers, Bolivian oral histories and press reports, and government records from four countries, this article explores a web of Cold War relationships forged between Bolivian workers and US government and labour officials. Uncovering a panoply of parallel and sometimes conflicting state-supported trade union development programmes, the article reveals governments’ inability to fully control the exuberance of ideologically-motivated labour activists. Rather than succeed in shoring up a civilian government as intended, US President John F. Kennedy's union-busting programme aggravated fissures in Bolivia's non-Communist Left, ultimately frustrating its attempt to steer a non-aligned posture in Latin America's Cold War. Employing transnational methods to bridge gaps between labour, development and diplomatic history, this article points toward a new imperial studies approach to the multi-sited conflicts that shaped the post-war trajectory of labour movements in Bolivia and throughout the Third World.

Abstract:
The article shows the diffi cult problem of how to renew the dialogue between the Catholic Church, present in Bolivia since the sixteenth century and the populist regime of Evo Morales, nowadays expelled by the Bolivian opposition from his own country. The painful division of the Bolivian society into several distinctly separate groups is a huge missionary challenge for the Catholic Church in Bolivia. Catholicism cannot look indiff erently at the many social experiments conducted in the area of this very poor Andean country. What is required, is a radical change of the spiritual formation, which will lead effi ciently to a renewed reception of the Gospel in the free heart of the Bolivian nation.

Abstract:
Lucha libre, a form of exhibition wrestling, has recently gained popularity in Bolivia, thanks to mixed-gender matches featuring traditionally-dressed women known as the cholitas luchadoras. Within their matches, the act of kissing is often used as a form of humiliating an opponent. This article explores the convergence of eroticism and humiliation in these kisses as an entry point for a broader understanding of the deployment of power in the Bolivian context. Taking both the symbolic language of bodies in the ring and audience discourses about that action, I explore how associations between humiliation and demasculinization may reinforce the potency of masculinity as a position of power. Further, seeing the chola as representative of the Bolivian nation helps us to understand the ways that humiliation works as a recognizable trope for Bolivian audiences, lending import to these seemingly superficial performances.

Abstract:
This article describes the tensions between institutionalized and grassroots forms of sustainability and their subsequent effects on textile artisans in La Paz, Bolivia. Principles of the indigenous cosmology Suma Qamaña are applied to the twenty-first-century challenge of environmental degradation and governmental corruption in the description of craft practices at two artisan collectives in La Paz. Suma Qamaña is an expression of the harmonious and respectful coexistence of humans with nature, which entails communal values and reciprocal resource management principles. The study highlights grassroots, practical solutions that encourage economic and environmental sustainability for textile cooperatives in Bolivia. Through extensive participant observation and in-depth interviews, this study seeks to understand how the lives of artisans are affected by the Bolivian government’s appropriation of the Suma Qamaña cosmology. The current political party, the Movimiento al Socialismo, has gained popular support in Bolivia partly by institutionalizing the inherent rights of nature in the national constitution. Despite this, the government continues to pursue extractive natural resource policies. To counter this, Bolivian textile artisans practise their own version of bottom-up sustainability, which does not rely on government institutions to enforce change. The artisans’ situated practices, traditional knowledge base and the inherently sustainable characteristics of craft production ‐ flexible, small-scale, localized and resilient ‐ reflect potential trends and alternatives for apparel production.

Paz, Moscoso Valeria. "Roberto Valcárcel : renaming repression and rehearsing liberation in contemporary Bolivian art." Thesis, University of Essex, 2016. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/17659/.

Full text
Abstract:
This study analyses the invisible forms of repression in the Bolivian art system by interpreting Roberto Valcárcel’s artwork in the light of Herbert Marcuse’s ideas on repression and liberation as expounded in Eros and Civilization. It considers, on the one hand, Valcárcel’s artwork in relation to the liberating role that Marcuse attributes to art (via phantasy, polymorphous eroticism, and Orphic paradigm). On the other hand, it explores the strategies devised by Valcárcel against repression, such as self-promotion, multiple texts, play, humour and unmasking certain repressive truths. The reading of Valcárcel’s work via Marcuse is supported by archival research from contemporary newspapers, exhibition documentation and Bolivian art history, which provide relevant information about the sorts of latent repression to which Valcárcel’s artworks responds. The dissertation is organised in five chapters in which examples of repressive beliefs are unveiled. Chapter One examines El Movimiento Erótico (The Erotic Movement, 1983) and the manifold strategies used by Valcárcel to escape the traps of a presumed type of sexual liberation (sexist and genital oriented) and capitalism’s culture industry. Chapter Two discusses artworks where the intentional construction of open meaning challenges the norm of a univocal creation and consumption of art. Chapter Three studies some of Valcárcel’s humorous identities in contrast with the dramatic, and overly serious self-perception of Bolivians artists. Chapter Four explores Valcárcel’s use of play, black humour and deceit as effective devices to escape hidden authoritarianism in society during dictatorial regimes. Chapter Five analyses how Valcárcel’s work unveils the latent repression in the idealisation of indigenous heritage through play and anti-thesis. The dissertation introduces a new topic into the study of art in Bolivia – veiled repression – at the same time that it sheds light on the potential of the artwork of Roberto Valcárcel to open new ways of historicizing and thinking about art in Bolivia.

Abstract:
This thesis attempts to measure the growth of the Bolivian informal sector. The study estimates the growth of the informal sector by defining it as the difference between the formal sector's reported real gross national product (GNP) and forecasted values of real GNP. The first chapter describes the Bolivian economy, defines its informal sector, and presents reasons for this sector's growth. Related research in informal activity, theoretical discussions, and perspectives are presented in the second chapter. Chapter III describes methodological research used in the analysis of the data. Chapter IV describes the results of the investigation. Conclusions and recommendations for the informal sector are provided in chapter V. The results show that it is possible to measure informal activity in a macro setting

Ryan, Holly. "Bringing the visual into focus : street art and contentious politics in Brazil, Bolivia and Argentina." Thesis, City University London, 2013. http://openaccess.city.ac.uk/2729/.

Full text
Abstract:
Politically committed street art has been mobilised time and again as a crucial strategy and means of expression. Yet, social movement scholars and political analysts have displayed a persistent tendency to overlook the specificities of visual tools and aesthetic experience in contentious politics. Consequently, political action is often described and understood in ways that are reductive and distorted. This dissertation brings together a range of insights from art and aesthetics, communications and cultural studies in order to address this quandary. Fundamentally, this study makes a novel contribution to the discipline of International Relations and to the associated field of Social Movement Theory by synthesising and extending scholarly work on political process and affective encounter in ways that facilitate a thoroughgoing analysis of politically committed street art and ‘what it can do’ in protest. Drawing on research undertaken in Bolivia, Brazil and Argentina, this dissertation argues that street art can and has been utilised strategically and instrumentally in protest, in mobilising resources and galvanising public opinion. It also contends that the framing processes leading to these outcomes have been under-specified due to their recourse to an epistemology that rationalises away the sensate dimensions of protest. A key claim of this thesis is that under certain circumstances street art can very usefully be modelled as a mode of infrapolitics; deliberately veiled expressions that seek to skirt the gaze of the authorities. However, it is also suggested that periods of seemingly rational and strategic deployments of street art are sometimes punctuated by something else, a collective sense of something gone awry, wherein the categories and tools for processing what went wrong are unavailable. In these instances, activists might be moved to produce street art or be moved by producing it. By attending to political street art’s instrumental and heuristic potentials, this piece of work goes beyond current discussions about framing and political opportunity. It also contributes a series of new case studies centred on periods of contention in Latin America.

Abstract:
Les edifices volcaniques d'arriere-arc de l'altiplano bolivien, a l'est des stratovolcans des andes centrales, se sont mis en place durant le neogene et le quaternaire, a environ 600 km de la fosse, au-dessus d'une croute continentale dont l'epaisseur peut atteindre 70 km. A partir des caracteristiques volcanologiques, des teneurs en sio#2 et des donnees radiochronologiques obtenues sur la quasi totalite des edifices de l'altiplano central, nous mettons en evidence l'existence de deux groupes de laves : - un groupe g1 constitue de laves acides, sous forme de domes volcaniques et de stocks sub-volcaniques, et d'age miocene a pliocene (20 a 5 ma) ; - un groupe g2 forme par des laves plus basiques, sous forme de coulees, dykes et maars, et d'age miocene terminal a quaternaire (6 ma a environ 30 000 ans). En outre, nous montrons que l'on peut decouper ce magmatisme d'arriere-arc en deux principaux domaines geographiques : - un domaine oriental dans lequel les laves sont enrichies en lile et notamment en hfse (zr, nb, ti) ; elles possedent des compositions isotopiques tres radiogeniques en sr et en pb. Ces laves derivent vraisemblablement d'une source mantellique enrichie en lile et particulierement en hfse que nous supposons etre le manteau lithospherique sous-continental du bouclier bresilien. Ce bouclier serait sous-charrie jusqu'a l'aplomb de l'altiplano. Les magmas ont ensuite ete essentiellement contamines par la croute superieure en meme temps qu'ils subissaient un processus de cristallisation fractionnee (modele de type afc) ; - un domaine occidental ou les laves, moins riches en lile et en hfse, ont des signatures isotopiques moins radiogeniques en sr et en pb. Leur source mantellique a ete probablement modifiee par des fluides hydrates provenant de la croute subductee, selon un modele classique de metasomatose de manteau d'arc. Pour la plupart de ces magmas, la contamination crustale s'est produite a un stade precoce de leur histoire par l'intervention d'un composant a signature de croute inferieure (modele de type mash). Cependant, certains d'entre eux semblent avoir ete contamines par les deux types de composants (croutes inferieure et superieure). En outre, il apparait que les magmas de g1 derivent par cristallisation fractionnee des magmas de g2.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper critically analyzes the implementation of compressed natural gas and the ways in which it creates discourse in urban Bolivia. The rapidly developing nation is keen on making ubiquitous use of compressed natural gas a reality by issuing subsidies, citing increased mobility, savings, and environmental stewardship as the primary motives. Currently, eight out of every 10 public vehicles in Bolivia are powered by compressed natural gas. Through semi-structured interviews, questionnaires and secondary data collection, this paper elucidates the transitional process of building a natural gas-based transport network through discursive governance. This work draws on the critical discourse analysis literature to dissect disaggregated modal preference data, government documents, and news articles collected in Santa Cruz, Latin America's second fastest growing city. Moreover, this paper identifies and examines the ways in which the counter-discourse impacts the transformation of the country’s energy matrix. Results show that Bolivian automobile owners are reluctant to convert their automobiles, despite reduced transportation costs, stating that minimal compressed natural gas infrastructure exists outside of urban areas, and the conversion damages their vehicles’ motor. Additionally, the research reveals that automobile owners are currently the main beneficiaries, though respondents who do not posses an automobile speak more favorably of natural gas. Finally, this research illustrates that the compressed natural gas-oriented policies encourage personal automobile use that continues to drive socio-spatial segregation of Santa Cruz’s residents. Thus, the compressed natural gas discourse helps shape the urban landscape by persuading the public to consume domestically extracted and manufactured natural gas.

Abstract Post-classical times are also referred to as the medieval period or the Middle Ages (in Europe), and they begin around ad 500 and end around ad 1500. During this era, travellers undertook long and arduous journeys to religious shrines and places of sacredness around the globe, such as in England, Jerusalem, Kumano (Japan), and the islands dedicated to the Sun and the Moon in Lake Titicaca on the border of Peru and Bolivia. This chapter discusses this medieval pilgrimage travels and highlights the birth of gastronomic tourism.

AbstractThis chapter explores the mechanisms shaping the progress towards universal health coverage in Bolivia. By investigating this process, unfolding in the context of a health care system characterised by fragmentation, segmentation and low coverage; increasingly challenged as democratisation and popular mobilisation brings the demands of previously excluded groups onto the political agenda; the study casts light on mechanisms that are also of broader relevance for the comparative literature on the politics of social protection in the Global South. The analyses highlight expert theorisation, class-based mobilisation, social movement–state interaction, alarmed middle classes, provider resistance and professional autonomy as the main mechanisms responsible for driving, impeding and shaping the progress towards universal social protection.

Abstract:
Abstract Repsol completed a 10-year long drilling campaign in the sub-Andean region of Bolivia the first semester of 2021 with the Margarita 10 infield well, a drilling campaign where some of the most prolific gas producers in south America were drilled. The complexity of these gas projects is well known and includes great geological uncertainty, hard rock from surface to bottom, high pressure and high temperature conditions among others. Margarita 10 was the last well of the above-mentioned campaign and served to prove that when you combine proper planning with great execution practices, fit-for-purpose technology and artificial intelligence there is no benchmark that cannot be improved, even if it's drilled in the middle of a worldwide pandemic that greatly affected the oil and gas industry and life in general. This paper will explain how the Margarita 10 was drilled and completed in little over six months when the standard for this type of wells was a year plus, the planning process and all the adjustments made to ensure it was a success even when all the odds were against it. The technology used and the engineering decisions behind it, the learning curve and the lessons learned from the vast experience the operator has in these fields which greatly helped managing the geological uncertainties that come with this type of plays. Among the technologies discussed we have a 3000 HP rig specifically assembled for this project, robust downhole tools to withstand huge loads, state of the art drilling bits with novel PDC cutters design, premium casing connection, liner and wellbore isolation technology. Special mention is made to Inwell.AI, the in-house developed, Repsol proprietary artificial intelligence tool that allowed the drilling team to reach rates of penetration never reached before in this kind of formations and the longest runs in the Bolivian sub-Andean region. The Margarita 10 project proved that efficient drilling operations can be achieved even in the most uncertain of environments, reducing historical time and cost estimations in more than half while accomplishing all proposed targets. Margarita 10, besides being an operational success, became one of the biggest gas producers in the country and showed that when things are done right there is no limit to what can be achieved in this industry.

In 12th International Conference on Concrete Pavements. International Society for Concrete Pavements, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.33593/40nfcisr.

Abstract:
In the last decade, the design and the construction of concrete pavements in Bolivia focused on prevention of fatigue damage of concrete by the design and construction of locally named "semi-short slabs" concrete pavements, a solution with slab size between traditional JPCP and short slab concrete pavements. Although the structural performance of these new pavements is adequate so far, it was observed that the length of the slab, which commonly is between 2.4 to 3.0 m, affects functional performance. Because of the slabs are affected by differential drying shrinkage, they develop permanent curling with wavelengths that have more influence on IRI with respect to other lengths due to the sensitivity of the Quarter-Car model. This article describes the studies conducted to determine the slab curling influence on IRI of concrete pavements built with semi-short slabs in the last years in the Bolivian Altiplano. Longitudinal profile data was collected by means of a laser profilometer in highway sections located in western Bolivia, in regions with high altitudes and arid climate. Based on profile information, mechanistic analyses were done in order to estimate the theoretical deflections along the slabs that correspond to the observed curling. Deflections calculated were then used to estimate a Pseudo Strain Gradient that represent the effects of curling along the evaluated sections. IRI related to slabs curling was calculated and compared to IRI calculated from artificially generated profiles for various slab lengths. Results indicate that slab curling of these pavements has an important influence on IRI of evaluated sections. Recommendations for specifications of new construction projects are presented.

Abstract:
This technical paper has an objective to describe the remote operations of the Bolivia-Brazil gas pipeline and present how it is done in the Supervision and Control Center including new technologies normally used to operate remotely. The Bolivia-Brazil gas pipeline is the biggest pipeline in Latin America; the whole pipeline has 3,159 km length, where the most part of that is in the Brazilian ground of 2,593 km. TBG is a company that has the Brazilian trunk property and is responsible for its operations, which starts just at the Bolivian border. The pipeline started its operational activities in 1999 and was designed to operate with high technology and with the minimum field personal as possible. The pipeline has the maximum transport capacity of 30 million cubic meters per day. To reach this level is necessary to operate at the same time twelve compression stations along the pipeline and deliver gas for the customers in more than thirty-six-city-gates spread in five Brazilian states. From its Head Office in Rio de Janeiro, TBG controls remotely all of the pipeline’s operations along its entire length. It surveys the full extension of the pipeline 24 hours a day with two engineers, by satellite, using SCADA system (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition software) and a plenty of online and offline simulation softwares including leak detection systems, pig monitoring, gas inventory management, look-ahead, predictive and trainer modules, thereby increasing operational reliability and improving decision-making process. Almost every operation is possible to be done by control engineers as like as starting-up turbines, increasing and decreasing compression rotations or even open or close valves. The technology VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) and IP tunnels through the corporate WAN are both used to exchange data. The whole system now has more than 50,000 tags in real time database. Other important issue is that TBG doesn’t need any measurement staff in the field proceeding all the data acquisition. The whole measurement process is completely done at Supervision Control Room and at the same instant when data were collected the customer has the final certified volume in its hands.

Abstract:
Abstract The South Sub-Andean Bolivian Basin presents significant geological challenges. Carboniferous and Devonian sequences with anomalous pore pressure trends require significantly different wellbore designs. Fluid losses, absence of wellbore stability, low penetration rates, severe vibrations, wellbore tortuosity, and stuck pipe challenges are common non-productive events that can lead to costly side-tracking. This paper addresses the effective use of stabilizing technology to drill two formations with significantly different pressures in a single section. The integrity of the well was compromised by an unexpected fault in the Devonian at 3353 m (11,000 ft) in the 12.25-inch section that replicated Carboniferous formations. The abnormal upper zone pressure was controlled with 13.5 ppg mud. However, most fluid additives were incompatible with the wellbore and destabilized it. Excessive overbalance and wellbore instability caused fluid losses and differential sticking at 3505 m (11,500 ft), resulting in a stuck pipe event with costs and schedule consequences. The mud properties were improved by introducing novel cellulosic components and slightly reducing the drilling fluid density. The improvement enabled drilling a 975 m (3200 ft) deeper sidetrack section with zero stuck pipe incidents. Casing the troublesome section was not an option due to the limitations on the hole diameter. Consequently, a novel mud system tailored to the formation was used to stabilize the wellbore. The performance of the fluid was monitored using an HPHT filter press and permeability plugging tester at all times. No fluid losses were observed throughout the weak zone. The 12.25-inch section was drilled up to the depth of 4176 m (13,700 ft) utilizing a 13.2-ppg mud and maintaining a differential pressure of 3000 psi, avoiding a highly costly extra casing section. Two runs of wireline logs consisting of 90 static stations of 30 minutes each were conducted along 1981 m (6500 ft) of the open hole without detecting differential sticking. A 9.625-inch production casing string was run and cemented in place. The cement evaluation log obtained after 78 hours indicated good bonding and hydraulic seal, effective mud displacement, and a successful cement job. Drilling through abnormal pressure formations was exceptionally challenging due to an unexpected Carboniferous-Devonian fault. The paper describes the first successful application of fluid stabilization technology in Bolivia where 3000 psi of overbalanced pressure was managed while achieving well objectives and ensuring the successful completion of the project.

Abstract:
The Bolivia Brasil Gas Pipeline (GASBOL) is a pipeline extending from the gas producing fields of Rio Grande, Bolivia, to Canoas, Brazil. It distributes gas to five states in Brazil, with a total extension of 3 160 km (1,970 mi) and a rated operating pressure of 100 kgf/cm2g (1,420 psig). GASBOL is owned and operated by Transportadora Brasileira Gasoduto Bolivia-Brasil S.A., TBG, a company whose shareholders are Petrobras, AEI Ame´rica do Sul, Transredes, BBPP Holdings and Bear Ga´s. After several occurrences of flow turbine failures caused by large flow variations at some city gates, the design of new stations was modified to include a control valve upstream of the interconnection point with consumers. For operational city gates such functionality would imply delivery interruption to perform costly hot tapping procedures in order to install a flow control valve. Therefore, TBG’s engineering team was challenged to develop a cheaper and quicker solution. This paper describes TBG’s answer to that challenge, developing a low cost flow control solution at ten selected city gates along the pipeline. The stations were chosen based on several aspects such as volume capacity, line packing to the consumer, etc. The main objective is to ensure that the daily volume effectively delivered does not exceed the contracted volume, avoiding delivery failures due to imbalances caused by unplanned withdrawals, as a means to improve planning of the pipeline operational profile.

Alaimo, Veronica. Better Jobs Index - Bolivia. Inter-American Development Bank, October 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0006374.

Full text
Abstract:
The Better Jobs Index measures jobs in countries based on two dimensions: quantity and quality. The quantity dimension is composed of two indicators: the labor participation rate and the employment rate. Quality, on the other hand, consists of the formality rate and living wage sufficient to overcome poverty. Thus, the index is the weighted average of these four indicators*, and their scores range from 0 to 100. For a country to get 100 points, all people who participate in the labor force must be employed with a formal job that provides them with a living wage.* Indicators are calculated using the population aged 15-64, excluding those who are studying and who, therefore, are not working or looking for work.

Abstract:
This study attempts to quantify female teenage sexual activity, pregnancy, and motherhood in Bolivia using the most recent Demographic and Health Survey. Descriptive results suggest that teenage sexual activity, pregnancy, and childbearing are more prevalent among those adolescents who are more likely to be socially vulnerable and excluded. In addition, the high incidence of undesired pregnancies among Bolivian teen girls suggests that government action to prevent teenage pregnancy is needed. Lastly, the estimation results indicate that not only socioeconomic and demographic factors, but also some of the expected outcomes of teenage motherhood, regional fertility factors, and knowledge about and use of family planning methods, are significantly related to the probability of teenage pregnancy/childbearing.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper we estimate the average treatment effect from access to extension services and credit on agricultural production in selected Andean countries (Bolivia, Peru, and Colombia). More specifically, we want to identify the effect of accessibility, here represented as travel time to the nearest area with 1,500 or more inhabitants per square kilometer or at least 50,000 inhabitants, on the likelihood of accessing extension and credit. To estimate the treatment effect and identify the effect of accessibility on these variables, we use data from the Colombian and Bolivian Agricultural Censuses of 2013 and 2014, respectively; a national agricultural survey from 2017 for Peru; and geographic information on travel time. We find that the average treatment effect for extension is higher compared to that of credit for farms in Bolivia and Peru, and lower for Colombia. The average treatment effects of extension and credit for Peruvian farms are $2,387.45 and $3,583.42 respectively. The average treatment effect for extension and credit are $941.92 and $668.69, respectively, while in Colombia are $1,365.98 and $1,192.51, respectively. We also find that accessibility and the likelihood of accessing these services are nonlinearly related. Results indicate that higher likelihood is associated with lower travel time, especially in the analysis of credit.

Navajas, Fernando, and Marcelo Catena. Oil & Debt Windfalls and Fiscal Dynamics in Bolivia. Inter-American Development Bank, July 2006. http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0008742.

Full text
Abstract:
During 2004-06 Bolivia experienced a five-fold increase in oil revenues due to tax/ contractual innovations, higher prices and larger volumes at the same time that a multi-lateral debt reduction initiative trimmed roughly one third of the public external debt. The political economy setting of this environment entails a new hydrocarbons law that automatically decentralize expenditure to local governments and nationalization of the oil industry. This paper presents a model of fiscal dynamics in Bolivia in a stochastic framework and finds that the new status-quo will generate double reversions of primary surplus and a public debt path that may fall short of being pleasant in the presence of unfettered fiscal spending and/or decline in international energy prices and gas demand from its neighbors. The authors conclude that governance of the process of allocations and distribution of the oil rent is essential to the short to medium term sustainability of the new Bolivian model.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper attempts to evaluate the effectiveness of Bolivia's labor market institutions, particularly the Plan Nacional de Empleo de Emergencia (PLANE). It is found that unemployment as conventionally defined may not be the most important problem in Bolivia's labor market, as the non-salaried market is always an alternative. While un- employment durations and unemployment scarring consequences are relatively low, labor market regulations and labor market programs do not help to increase the size of the formal market, apparently as a result of Bolivia's rigid labor markets and labor policies based mainly on temporary employment programs. Such programs, however, may have helped to smooth consumption. Given the country's high level of infor- mality, protection policies are second best to active policies specifically designed to increase the productivity/employability of vulnerable populations.

Abstract:
This paper explores the role of social networks in determining the participation of Bolivian women in income-generating activities. The empirical analysis intends to explore the impact of this new social variable on the economic choices of women and its relative importance with respect to other individual characteristics, such as education or number of children in the household. The empirical framework defines social network as the average outcome of people living in the same neighborhood. Estimation results suggest that social networks are an effective channel through which women obtain access to salaried jobs, which are of higher quality than jobs as self-employers. In contrast, their male counterparts find a positive but statistically insignificant effect from social networks. When considering the sex of the contact, it is found that women in urban areas benefit from other women being employed, while in rural areas women benefit from the presence of more employed male workers.

Full text
Abstract:
The city of Montero, through the cooperative utility COSMOL, has successfully implemented on-site sanitation services for part of its population, in parallel to sewer-based services. However, additional solutions, capacity development and strengthening of governance systems are needed to allow for increased sustainability, for both the sewered and non-sewered sanitation services in the city. Technical improvements are still needed in wastewater and excreta management and treatment, to reduce health and environmental impacts. However, optimizing the existing sanitation systems could increase environmental, health and hygiene sustainability. Urine-diverting dry toilets (UDDTs) have the potential to reduce environmental impact the most, once optimized and if urine and faeces are collected and treated for reuse. Local farmers have expressed demand for sanitation reuse products, as long as low price and quality can be guaranteed. From a household perspective, demand exists for high levels of service and maintenance by providers, no matter the type of system, to ensure simple maintenance by users. But the sanitation system still needs to be affordable, match cleanliness expectations, and remain free of odours, mosquitos and rodents. Upscaling on-site sanitation systems depends strongly on the support of the public institutions and resources available, including legal, economic and technical resources, as well as having a long-term vision.

Full text
Abstract:
Violence against women is widespread in Latin America and the Caribbean. On average, every day, 10 women are murdered in the region, and of the 25 countries with the highest rates of femicide in the world, 13 are in this region. Violence against women invades womens everyday lives and takes place in both public and private spheres and within all socioeconomic groups. Most femicides are committed by their partners or former partnersone out of every three women between the ages of 15 and 49 in the region have experienced physical and/or sexual violence at the hands of a partner, with rates ranging between 17% (for the Dominican Republic) and 53% (for Bolivia). Violence against women has a negative impact (physical and psychological) on the health of victims, and it also affects their economic decisions and opportunities for development. Additionally, it increases the probability that children suffer abuse, corporal punishment, and/or negligent/dysfunctional care as well as the likelihood that minors end up reproducing this behavior when they are adults, perpetuating the cycle of violence.
