Abstract

This article seeks to analyze and reflect on a series of conflicting scenarios between the different social movements and the governments of Evo Morales Ayma in Bolivia, which largely anticipate and explain the coup d’ Etat of November 2019. In this sense, at first, the essay seeks to expose the main characteristics of the economic policy of the Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) in the thirteen years of the presidential mandate. In a second part, deals with the changing relationship between the different social movements and the Morales administration; in particular, there is a set of protests that took place around their economic measures. Both issues will help to understand the origin of the political tensions experienced in the weeks prior to his overthrow.
