Uprising

UPRISING is a detailed description and analysis of the Indigenous-led uprising of October 2019 in Ecuador, written by three people deeply involved in the revolt. The authors describe the causes and conditions that produced the October explosion, and the development and dynamics of the different social forces and organisations involved, including an acute and self-critical assessment of the Indigenous movement itself, and a evaluation of the limitations of the politics of the Citizen Revolution movement of the previous government of Rafael Correa.
