Political ScienceDescription:
For more than ten years, Caracas Chronicles has distilled Hugo Chavezs Venezuela for English-speaking readers, providing both context and a home for lively discussion. This compilation by its editors, Toro and Nagel, brings together their best work. With Hugo Chavezs passing, Venezuela enters a new era. The time has come to look back on a decade of unprecedented upheavals. From a sharply critical stance, Blogging the Revolution surveys the evolution of both chavismo and the opposition, the disintegration of Venezuelas public sphere, the political economy of the petrostate, and its impact on everyday life in the South American nation.
