The ill-made knight

About “The ill-made knight”

This book examines the role of sports policy within Bolivia's "process of change" from 2006 to 2019, focusing on the government of Evo Morales. It explores how sports were integrated into this political transformation and the president's involvement in the sports field. The book also analyzes the achievements and limitations of these policies in the context of decolonization. It begins with a historical look at sports in indigenous communities and movements, then reviews Morales' sports career and the policies his government introduced. The work concludes with a reflection on the impact of these actions on the broader "process of change" and its decolonizing dimension. The book includes a prologue by Luis H. Antezana.
