Abstract

Los experimentos populistas son recurrentes en América Latina. Uno de los casos más conspicuos es el de Bolivia en el siglo 21 bajo el gobierno de Evo Morales y el Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS). El populismo de este siglo, en común con experiencias previas, prioriza [a redistribución del ingreso y de la riqueza basada en el papel central en la economía que se le da al Estado. por una parte. y en el nacionalismo, por otra. La característica nueva en el populismo del siglo 21 es la incorporación de las reivindicaciones étnicas de la mayoritaria población indígena. Las políticas económicas apuntan a réditos políticos de corto plazo, desdeñando las consecuencias de largo plazo. Pero, a diferencia de experiencias previas, la agresión a los mercados, muy palpable en el caso de [as nacionalizaciones y en [a Nueva Constitución Política del Estado, ha sido más importante que la expansión fiscal o monetaria, Por otra parte, gracias al contexto internacional muy favorable, las políticas del gobierno del MAS no han tenido que chocar con restricciones fiscales o de balanza de pagos.
