Culture differences is a set of cultural values, beliefs and religious beliefs that separates one society/ country from another. Although the main elements of culture includes, language, religion, education, social structure and attitudes. In this essay I will discuss how a successful business like Toyota which operates internationally can be affected by the environment and culture of Bolivia.

Bolivia is a small but diverse country in both architecture and culture due to foreign

Latin America went from isolated to connected with the rest of the world during the time period 1450 to 1750 because of colonization by the Europeans. However, the economy, slavery, and the tribal systems stayed the same.

The geography of Bolivia is unique among the nations of South America. Bolivia is one of two landlocked countries on the continent (the other being Paraguay), and Bolivia is more urban (67%) than rural (23%). The main features of Bolivia's geography include the Altiplano, a highland plateau of the Andes, and Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake on Earth, which is shared with Peru.

The American Revolution did much more than any of our founding fathers had ever imagined, it started a movement that would threaten the very roots of colonialism across the globe. Setting an example of how a David could overcome a Goliath, the United States inspired regions such as Latin America to fight for their rights and liberties as well. One such region that embraced the message was Upper Peru, which would later be known as Bolivia. With some key tipping points that caused the war, the leaders of the soon to be formed nation rallied its troops and won several major battles, but even they couldn’t prevent the tough times that lay in the early years of the nation. From the year 1809, Upper Peru was engaged in a

The Americas, now known as Latin America, has gone through many changes in its history, from being conquered by Spain and Portugal, to the people fighting for its independence and finally, making a living as newly independent countries. From the years 1850 to the end of the 19th century, each region had influences, specifically those that dealt with the after effects colonial rule had on the land. Nations that made up Latin America began modifying different portions in their government in attempts to benefit the majority of the people. More or so, they accomplished this goal, each with their own challenges. Evidently, changes within the social, political and economic systems were focused on external factors.

Bolivia is a vibrant country located in South America. Bolivia is a republic government, and it is comprise of four branches; they are the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branch which are similar to the United States. Juan Evo Morales is the president and his branch, executive, has majority of the power. Bolivia has a written constitution; its criminal justice system is inspired by civil law tradition, Spanish and Napoleonic code. Bolivia is essentially a unitary system with a highly centralized national government (Central Intelligence Agency, 2014). This paper will highlight the legal system, history, and legal traditions of Bolivia; furthermore, it will give insight on Bolivia’s police, draw comparisons between the United States, and the pivotal aspect of the country’s criminal justice system.

In both Bolivia and Brazil locals rallied around a plethora of issues. Bolivia, specifically Cochabamba, rallied around the issue unfair water practices by the foreign company Bechtel. Cochabamba’s dependence on Bechtel sprung out of a need for water that had festered due to overpopulation, deforestation, and poverty. However, Bechtel proved to be a major problem and increased water rates by more than 50% which caused the locals to riot. Problems also exist in Brazil in the favelas and for the landless peasants. Favelas are small houses that are on land that is not owned by the occupants of the favela. People live in favelas due to extreme poverty as many favelas lack sewage, garbage collection, water and are plagued with drug dealing and crime.

The indigenous peoples of Peru were in fact excluded by the non-indigenous because they were looked down upon by the Peruvian government and treated as inferior. One of the reasons is because there was a racial aspect to Peru’s exclusion of their indigenous populations. Officials in Peru believed that Indians were “lazy, ignorant and backward, and argued that they were bound to traditions that impeded on economic progress” (6) Officials believed that they were an inherently inferior race that only produced the minimum in order to survive. Officials were overall disgusted with their indigenous population, and resorted to creating codes in order to constitute who is considered to be Peruvian. The state would consider them to not be part of the republic if they did not adapt those codes (8). Consequently, the believed that since they were inherently different, they should not be included in their nation (9). Indigenous Peruvians paid taxes, which helped them keep property. The ownership of property resulted in the formation of indigenous communities separated from non-indigenous Peruvians. Leaders emerged from these indigenous communities. As a result, Indigenous communities were considered to be autonomous (9), and did not need the political influences of the

We, the Bolivian delegation, are aware that there is economic disharmony in the world and know that this is because of the international trade of natural resources. Even though we have important natural resources such as natural gas and petroleum, we are the 2nd poorest country in South America. The main reasons for this are;

Bolivia has the highest infant mortality rate (31 per 1000 live births) and the lowest life expectancy among the countries mentioned in the above table. According to the find the data website, Bolivia is among the poorest country in the Latin America with an estimated 39.06% of its population are under the poverty line. Therefore, socioeconomic status of the Bolivians may account for the high mortality rate and low life expectancy than the other four countries compared. Chile has the highest life expectancy (81 years in average for both sexes) and adult obesity rate (29.4 in average) among the five compared countries. Surprisingly, these two countries show paradoxical analysis in terms of the obesity versus life expectancy. Although it’s undeniable

I was born on September 19, 2000. I am originally from a country called Bolivia. It is located in South America and it’s neighbors with Argentina and Brazil. My life there was pretty good. I had many friends, my whole mom’s side of the family lived there and part of my dad’s. I also went to a private italian school and thought my life was going great. I lived there until i was 7 years old. Man did I love the food and the climate there. It felt like paradise. I never thought of moving out that place. Then, one day I got some exciting news.

This publication does not seek to discuss Ecuador ́s political proposal towards building said socialism exhaustively or in depth. This analysis has been developed at length in other writings4 and is also embodied in the National Plan for Good Living, 2009-20135. In this occasion, it is more pertinent to posit a philosophical-political analysis of one of the flagship initiatives that Ecuador has presented to the world and that is a symbolic example of the dispute of the logic of “capitalist development”: the Yasuní-ITT6 Initiative. This project consists of keeping the oil underground (not drilling for it) in one of the most mega-diverse areas of the world, located in the Ecuadorian Amazon. In that sense it is a concrete example of the ways a society of good living can be built. The framework for this analysis is a discussion taking place globally among a certain branch of Leftist thought that believes that what is most progressive and achievable nowadays is to devise and construct improvements in the administration of capitalism – in other words, to promote its “good”7 side – and another stance, which presents anti-capitalism from a purely theoretical perspective, regardless of the political viability of their proposals.
