		After 52 years of agrarian reform, Bolivian agriculture is divided into two distinct tendencies: enormous latifundios (estates), vast territories in which only a small part is used for productive agriculture; and hundreds of thousands of tiny, over-cultivated properties owned by indigenous and/or campesino farmers.

		But the question remains whether the first indigenous president in Bolivia's history will be allowed--by the Bolivian Congress or by the larger international financial and legal system--to live up to his promises and fulfill the enormous expectations of his supporters.
		In fact, despite being the testing ground for much of neoliberal economic policy in the past twenty years, the average Bolivian is now poorer than his grandparents were fifty years ago.
