Mineworkers in Bolivia organized sharp protests that included explosions in several areas, demanding the immediate resignation of President Rodrigo Paz. The protests reflect an escalating political and economic crisis despite the president's promises of economic reform upon taking office.
Mineworkers are considered a historically significant union force capable of altering the course of national policy, and the escalation of their protests signals the failure of government economic policies in improving the conditions of working groups.
