REVILLA ORIAS, Paola. Of coronations and other memories: Afro-Bolivians and the Plurinational. Tinkazos [online]. 2014, vol.17, n.36, pp.121-131. ISSN 1990-7451.

This study delves into the ethno-historical background to the Afro-Bolivian king and his role in the Plurinational State of today. It suggests that the figure of the king is now encouraging a reconfiguration of identity among some Afro-Bolivians in their negotiation with the state, seeking a better integration of historical experience in the process of socio-political reorganization currently under way in the country.

Palavras-chave : Afro-Bolivians; African-descent people; Afro-Bolivian king; cultural identity; cultural integration; social integration; oral history.
