In this fresh look at Venezuelan politics, Steve Ellner emphasizes
the central significance of the country's economic and social
cleavages. Ellner's journey through modern Venezuelan history -
observing popular masses and social actors as much as political
elites and formal institutions - fundamentally informs his analysis
of Hugo Chavez's presidency and the 'Bolivarian Revolution' at its
core. Perhaps equally important, as he explores the rise of
Chavismo, opposition within the country and abroad, internal
tensions in the Chavista movement, and the trajectory of the Chavez
government domestically and on the international stage, he sheds
new light not only on Venezuela, but also on the recent political
turmoil elsewhere in Latin America. This title offers a fresh
perspective on Venezuelan politics from the colonial period to the
present, emphasizing the central significance of the country's
economic and social cleavages.
