Jesse Walker has a short piece at Reason about the clusterfark that is "market reform" in Bolivia. The 800-lb gorilla in the room is (of course) the single biggest market in Bolivia, coca. Check it out. Walker reveals a tragic and misguided series of events, and offers this analysis: " the war on drugs has undermined not just peasant property rights but the rule of law."
