- The monograph represents the culmination of three-years of ethnographic research, spread over a ten-year period, in a coca and cocaine producing region of Bolivia, constituting a theoretical and empirical advancement of the understanding of how state-level interventions intersect with the goals of the social movements that put them in power. The author had to build relationships with difficult to access populations including drug crop growers and cocaine traffickers. The book bridges debates across a number of disciplines, including anthropology, geography, area studies and history. The research was funded by the ESRC, the OSF, the SSRC and the Leverhulme Trust.
