https://bsj.pitt.edu/ojs/bsj <p>The <em>Bolivian Studies Journal </em>is a peer-reviewed publication that responds to the growing interest in understanding the past and present of historical and cultural processes in Bolivia. Toward this end, it promotes research that is innovative, interdisciplinary, and interested in critically discussing the challenges that Bolivia is facing (and posing) in the new millennium. The journal is also an effort to contribute to the vibrant and committed international community of Bolivianists and welcomes initiatives to re-conceptualize the theoretical and epistemological frameworks that have traditionally oriented interpretations of Bolivian history and culture. We publish once a year and accept research papers, articles, documents, reviews, interviews, and discussion materials written in Spanish, English, Português and Indigenous Languages. </p> en-US https://bsj.pitt.edu/ojs/bsj/announcement/view/20 Bolivian Studies Journal 2024-11-14 https://bsj.pitt.edu/ojs/bsj/announcement/view/15 <p>Dates: November 3-4, 2016</p> <p>Place: 602 Cathedral of Learning, University of Pittsburgh </p> <p><strong>Invited Speakers: </strong></p> <p>Maya Aguiluz Ibargüen, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México; José Luis Ayala, Aymara writer and Yatiri; Riccardo Badini, Università degli Studi di Cagliari; Marco Thomas Bosshard, Europa-Universität Flensburg; Jorge Coronado, Northwestern University; Meritxell Hernando Marsal, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina; Helena Usandizaga, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona; José Luis Velásquez Garambel, Universidad Nacional del Altiplano, Puno; Juan Zevallos Aguilar, The Ohio State University; Amaratt Peralta, Gamaliel Churata's son and custodian of his unpublished manuscripts </p> Bolivian Studies Journal 2016-09-22 https://bsj.pitt.edu/ojs/bsj/announcement/view/11 <p>The LASA-Bolivia Section invites its members and the scholarly community to submit papers that address the vibrant debate of "decolonization" in Bolivia from a variety of perspectives and disciplines.
