Over at the Foreign Policy blog, Joshua Keating has a fascinating brief on the Bolivian provincial autonomy crisis. (Never thought you'd read the words "fascinating" and "Bolivian provincial autonomy crisis" in the same sentence, did you?) Earlier this week four Bolivian provinces declared their autonomy to protest the policies of Chavez protege President Evo Morales. Morales said the move was "illegal." The standoff continues.

Tyler Cowen asks: "What does Bolivia need to do to make the front-page?" Good question.
