Among the main issues posed during the Bolivian constituent process in the last decade, there are particularly the "decolonization" and the "indigenous autonomies" had a density and a sense of profound transformation, as conditions for the construc­tion of a "multinational State", as demands and proposals of the indigenous move­ments that will be able to incorporate it in the present constitutional text. However, like other central / transversal principles and concepts in the Constitution, decolo­nization would have been relegated to a merely declarative term within the MAS go­vernment rhetoric, without a materialization in reality. In contrast, in the last years a process of territorial recolonization and a state-centric political tendencies seems to be consolidating more and more clearly in Bolivia. It is proposed a critical look at the situation of indigenous autonomies, around of the government policies in relation to the proposal of decolonization, since the situation in the lowlands in Bolivia. ; Dentro de los principales temas posicionados durante el proceso constituyente boliviano la década pasada, particularmente tuvieron una densidad y sentido de transformación profunda la "descolonización" y las "autonomías indígenas", como condiciones para la construcción de un "Estado plurinacional", en tanto demandas y propuestas de los movimientos indígenas que lograrán incorporarlas en el actual texto constitucional.

This book reflects on the continuing expansion of extractive forms of capitalist development into new territories in Latin America, and the resistance movements that are trying to combat the ecological and social destruction that follows. Latin American development models continue to prioritise extractivism: the intensive exploitation and exportation of nature in its primary commodity form. This constant expansion of the extractive frontier into new territories leads to forms of place-based resistance, negotiation and struggle in which competing territorial projects and claims are at stake. This book uncovers the underlying trends and dynamics of these territorialities in dispute', and the socio- ecological resistance movements that are emerging as marginalized communities struggle to reclaim their territorial rights and defend and protect their right of access to the global commons. A focus on territorialities in dispute renders visible the unsustainable expansion of extractivist territories and opens up new horizons to learn from these processes and to consider post-extractivist/post-development imaginings of another world and alternate futures - as well as the challenges to their realisation. This book will be of interest to both students and researchers in the fields of international development, political ecology, critical geography, social anthropology as well as to activists engaged in socio-ecological/eco-territorial movements
