  • Position of Interested Parties
    CHAPTER 4: POSITION OF INTERESTED PARTIES This chapter summarizes the views of interested parties submitted to the Commission in connection with the investigation, either at the hearing or in written statements.1 The order in which the summaries of submissions are shown is as follows: (1) the views of officials of the Governments of Bolivia, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Indonesia, Kenya, Korea, Mauritius, Nicaragua, Peru, and Sri Lanka; and (2) the views of the American Apparel and Footwear Association, the American Textile Manufacturers Institute, the American Textile Trade Action Coalition, the Consumers for World Trade, the International Mass Retail Association, the Textile and Apparel Manufacturing Association of Israel, and the United States Association of Importers of Textiles and Apparel. Bolivia2 The Embassy of Bolivia states that the elimination of quotas in 2005 will change the competitive environment in the international textiles and apparel sector significantly. Countries such as China that engage in mass production will gain a competitive advantage in international trade in these products. The Embassy recommends establishing a system to enable Bolivia’s textile and apparel entrepreneurs to take full advantage of current business opportunities withdeveloped markets such as the United States. The Embassy acknowledges that the duty-free benefits granted under the Andean Trade Promotion and Grug Eradication Act (ATPDEA) will allow Bolivia to develop a more proactive export strategy for its textile and apparel sector and, thereby, boost employment, attract foreign investment, and increase economic growth. The Embassy of Bolivia provides statistics that show a significant decline in the country’s cotton production, largely caused by falling international cotton prices.

  • The Culture of Democracy and Bolivia's Indigenous Movements
    Article The Culture of Democracy and Bolivia’s Indigenous Movements Robert Albro The George Washington University Abstract ■ This article describes the participation of Bolivia’s indigenous move- ments in encompassing popular protest coalitions of the last five years. Pointing to the importance of cultural heritage in current social movement efforts to revi- talize Bolivian democracy, this argument examines the importance of the ‘terms of recognition’ in the negotiation of the very meaning of democratic partici- pation, between the traditional political class and popular protesters, but also within protesting coalitions. As both indigenous and popular traditions of struggle increasingly make common cause, Bolivia’s indigenous movements are providing the cultural resources that frame the terms of popular protest. At the same time, the terms of indigenous identity are also changing form, becoming more available to growing urban-indigenous and non-indigenous popular social sectors now willing to claim or reclaim an indigenous heritage. This article also explores key transnational and national networks now involved in this transform- ation of the terms of indigenous cultural heritage, making it the basis of an alternative democratic public in Bolivia. Keywords ■ Bolivia ■ democratization ■ indigenous movements ■ publics ■ recognition ‘Looking back, we will move forward.’ Carlos Mamani Condori (1992), Aymara activist and historian ‘We need a space where the people can talk not about the past, but the future.’ Oscar Olivera (2004), social movement spokesperson On 6 June 2005, Bolivian president Carlos Mesa resigned for the second time, citing his inability to govern while mired in another round of large- scale social mobilizations that had paralyzed the country since mid-May.
