#BoliviaEnCrisis #HumanRights On average, Bolivian police and military were responsible for 7.6 deaths in political conflict per year since 1982. Under Evo Morales, that figure fell to just 2.4.

Altogether, 137 people died in social movement-related events during the fourteen years of Morales’ presidency, and a close runner-up to President Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada’s fourteen-month death toll of 139. Very different paces.

In nearly all other respects, the Morales years were quantitatively very different from Sánchez de Lozada, and more in line with the 1982–1999 period of limited violence in Bolivian political life.

Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada’s second term stands out from all others (116 deaths per calendar year), only distantly followed by Jorge Quiroga’s one-year term (32/year) and Hugo Banzer’s 1997–2001 term (24–31/year). Evo Morales’ presidency had 9.9 deaths per year.
