Bolivia: 42 Regions

Categories: Latin America, Bolivia, Governance, Politics

Miguel Buitrago criticizes a plan by the Bolivian government [1] to add a political layer of 42 regional subunits between the country's nine departments and 327 municipalities. Miguel Centallas, however, argues [2] that the new subunits might actually strengthen the municipalities. The two Miguel's have a useful discussion on the issue in this comments thread [3].
