Carol Conzelman is a Ph.D. student in cultural anthropology studying participatory democracy in the Nor Yungas of Bolivia in relation to national trends toward global market integration and alternative development. This Aymara peasant farming region is where coca is legally grown for domestic onsumption (not for the cocaine trade), and thus presents unique possibilities for conflict and ollaboration. Her DART fellowship funded two weeks of research in Washington, DC, to ascertain "the view of Bolivia from Washington" from economists, government officials, development consultants, activists, and a variety of scholars with experience in Bolivia.
