"Brief, interesting history of the pact between Bolivian armed forces and campesinos from early 1960s-74. Describes its formation thanks to Gen. René Barrientos Ortuño who mobilized and armed important peasantry sectors of Cochabamba's central valleys in order to catapult himself to power. Following his death, the pact grew fragile as successive military governments failed to reinforce established patrimonial links. The pact essentially ended in Jan. 1974 when then President Gen. Hugo Banzer Suárez ordered the air force to strafe a peasant protest in the town of Tolata. Subsequent military governments had little capacity to mobilize the peasantry"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
