Arturo von Vacano, el ensayista y comentarista más comentado de Bolivia, llamó "Experimento Evo" al periodo vivido desde el triunfo electoral del Presidente Evo Morales en 2005 hasta el 4 de mayo de 2008, cuando la oposición fascista lanzara su "consulta autonómica" para intentar la muerte de Bolivia y su reemplazo por la nueva Kosovo de América, SRZ o Santa Cruz. Sus columnas crean una imagen de esta tragedia continental con facetas tristes, heroicas, originales, nuevas y todas ausentes de la prensa impresa boliviana e internacional, cómplices ambas del complot evidente que hace del periodismo "democrático" universal un enemigo de los pobres de la tierra. Logra así una serie de notas que eluden la vida fugaz de la prensa diaria para verse repetidas dentro y fuera de Bolivia y conquistar, si no la simpatía del lector, su interés hasta ayudarle a hacerse una idea propia y personal del racismo y la ignorancia que son amenazas letales para Bolivia.

"This book will appeal to anyone who is interested in the history of social justice. In fact, given the recent election of Barack Obama, Evo Morales'story resonates even more, as it indicates that indeed there is positive change in the world. I see parallels between the stories of these two men because both come from marginalized and oppressed communities and both men have extraordinary intelligence, charisma, idealism and courage.
Arturo von Vacano's book of articles on Evo Morales' presidency is uniquely insightful. His analyses are clear, honest and affecting. They should be read by all Bolivians and they are certainly of interest to all Latin Americans. However, as I said earlier, they should captivate any person who is concerned about justice and the struggle to achieve it. It is not easy or pretty, and von Vacano's book will make you feel the rage of the Indians of Bolivia, who have been abused for over 500 years and were de facto slaves up to the 1950s. The book will also make you cry in its telling of their sacrifices and deaths. Occasionally, you will laugh at the folly and ignorance of those who defend the "rights" of the elite to continue oppressing their fellow citizens. The overall picture is one of a unique moment in history because a humble man of the people is now the leader of his nation. I have just finished reading the first volume and look forward to reading the second installment of articles by von Vacano.

• Democracy has many faces. We usually think that our US system is the most democratic, but sometimes unusual new approaches can be even more democratic. The case of Evo Morales in Bolivia sheds light on democratization, and how racially-divided countries can try to establish true democracies after hundreds of years of inequality. In this book, von Vacano shows the "Evo Experiment" and what we can learn from it, not just in Latin America. We can also learn about how to have a more democratic society in the US and other countries with high social inequality as well as long histories of racial divisions.
