I think you underrate how fundamental the influence of the movement was. It is not dead. The roots are in the ground and waiting.

That remains to be seen.

But it doesn't really matter to my point: It is not an active and important part of the current left-wing renaissance in Latin America. The core legitimizing narratives of the current movements pay very little if any homage to it, and the demographics include far more indigenous movements (someone like Evo Morales is completely out of character as a figurehead for a Liberation Theology dominated political movement).
