The book proposes an interpretation of the contemporaneity of the trade and the formation of architecture in the La Paz and national context, through deep and detailed reflections fed by bibliographical references from multiple authors and fields: art, history, architecture, culture, cinema, anthropology, philosophy, among others, which gives the text an unprecedented intellectual density in the Bolivian context. This is, without a doubt, the most complex and extensive text produced in the architectural historiography in Bolivia, regarding disciplinary theory and thought. The book is composed of three parts in which it is addressed, under an analytical, interpretative and critical logic, from the most basic and characteristic aspects of the discipline, its reasons for being, its common and constant features at a global level, to its pending, current and future challenges in the early decades of the 21st century.
