Also reinvented the revolution itself to consolidate support behind the state. The revolution had become the state, the state had become the revolution. 1952: many considered this the 2nd great social revolution in latin. In the years since then though, this revolution has been mostly forgotten in many ways. A lot of people think that this is an incomplete revolution. It succeeded in taking power and setting up instructions but it failed to get the necessary support behind it it had like a split personality. Moderate leaders but a very radical worker/peasant base. At the top, they lacked a clear vision to define their agenda. They don"t know what to do with this revolution w/o a united goal/vision, the bolivian revolution loses w/o a united goal/vision, the bolivian revolution loses momentum and degenerates into like fighting.
