{"product_id":"understanding-the-venezuelan-revolution-hugo-chavez-9781583671283","title":"Understanding the Venezuelan Revolution: Hugo Chavez Talks to Marta Harnecker","description":"\u003cp\u003eMarta Harnecker's interviews with Hugo Chavez began soon after one of the most dramatic moments of Chavez's presidency--the failed coup of April 2002, which ended with Chavez restored to power by a massive popular movement of protest and resistance. In the aftermath of the failed coup, Chavez talks to Harnecker about the formation of his political ideas, his aspirations for Venezuela, its domestic and international policies, problems of political organization, relations with social movements in other countries, and more, constantly relating these to concrete events and to strategies for change.\u003cbr\u003eThe exchange between Harnecker and Chavez--sometimes reflective, sometimes anecdotal, always characterized by their passionate commitment to the struggles of the oppressed--brings to light the process of thought and action behind the public pronouncements and policies of state.\u003cbr\u003eThe interviews are supplemented by extracts from Chavez's most recent pronouncements on the ongoing transformation in Venezuela and Latin America, an analysis by Harnecker of the role of the military, and a chronology.\u003cbr\u003eChavez has become a symbol of defiance of U.S. imperialism throughout Latin America. His importance for the future of the region makes this book essential reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugo Chavez,Marta Harnecker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1583671285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781583671283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Monthly Review Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.10h x 5.50w x 0.80d","brand":"Hugo Chavez","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48112736403711,"sku":"9781583671283","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ebd4aac6-6928-4b6f-87ba-696259f9c60b.jpg?v=1769610600","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/understanding-the-venezuelan-revolution-hugo-chavez-9781583671283","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
