  • El Desarrollo De Las Bibliotecas En Bolivia Development of the Libraries in Bolivia
    Ciencia y Cultura Nº 36 ISSN: 2077-3323 Junio 2016 47-80 El desarrollo de las bibliotecas en Bolivia Development of the libraries in Bolivia Luis Oporto Ordóñez* Resumen Breve estudio sobre el desarrollo de las bibliotecas públicas en Bolivia. Primero se revisan la serie de leyes que el Estado ha ido promulgando para fomentar su desarrollo, y consecuentemente, la política cultural del país, incluyendo a los libros como parte del patrimonio cultural. Luego se analiza y describe el desa- rrollo desigual que experimentaron las bibliotecas en Bolivia, desde la creación de la primera biblioteca pública en el siglo XIX. En 1906, la biblioteca pública de La Paz pasó a depender del municipio, situación similar al resto del país. Posteriormente se crearon las bibliotecas universitarias, otras dependientes de la Iglesia y organismos no gubernamentales, colegios, unidades militares y cen- tros mineros. Este proceso abarcó también a otros sectores de la población organizada, creándose unidades de información del nivel central del Estado y sus ministerios. 47 Palabras clave: Historia de las bibliotecas en Bolivia; bibliotecas públicas; bi- bliotecas universitarias; bibliotecas municipales; política cultural de Bolivia; patrimonio documental de la Nación. * Magister Scientiarum en Historia Andina y Amazónicaa.

  • Carlos D. Mesa Gisbert La Aventura Del Cine Boliviano
    CARLOS D. MESA GISBERT ________________________________________________________________ LA AVENTURA DEL CINE BOLIVIANO 1952 - 1985 EDITORIAL GISBERT Y CIA. S.A. LA PAZ 1985 A JOSE Y TERESA MIS PADRES A QUIENES DEBO LO QUE SOY INTRODUCCION Se ha dicho ya que la Bolivia de hoy no puede comprenderse sin conocer en detalle lo que era el país antes de Abril de 1952, tampoco sin considerar los profundos cambios que aparejó el movimiento revolucionario de ese año. Creo que esa afirmación puede aplicarse también al caso del cine. El cine boliviano de los años sesenta inaugurado por Jorge Sanjinés y el posterior, no son explicables sin asumir lo que significó 1952 en lo político, social, económico y en lo que, hoy podemos decirlo, fue la apertura de una nueva ruta cultural que ha ampliado y enriquecido las perspectivas hacia una mejor comprensión de este país. Uno de los rasgos que tipifica la dimensión de un proceso revolucionario es, además de los dislocamientos económicos, sociales y políticos, el surgimiento de un nuevo ritmo en la concepción y el desarrollo de la cultura, entendiendo como cultura en este caso el conjunto de expresiones de la creación artística, la investigación en ciencias sociales y la propia reinterpretación de la Cultura (con mayúsculas) de la Nación. Es frecuente la actitud, en la mayor parte de los casos corroborada por los hechos, de desilusión y frustración cuando se mira al 52 y sus frutos. Es ya moneda corriente la certeza amarga de que la Revolución Nacional no sólo se quedó en el camino, sino que además fue traicionada e incluso arrebatada al movimiento popular que forjó ese extraordinario proceso de cambio.
