  • Izquierda Y Populismo. Alternativas Al Neoliberalismo En Venezuela
    Izquierda y populismo: alternativas al neoliberalismo en Venezuela1 Edgardo Lander I. El Pacto de Punto Fijo y la izquierda En el año 1958, con el derrocamiento de la dictadura militar de Marcos Pérez Jiménez, se inicia en Venezuela el período democrático del llamado puntofijismo, pacto de gobernabilidad que tiene como protagonistas a los dos principales partidos políticos del país (Acción Democrática y Copei), contando con el respaldo de las Fuerzas Armadas, la alta jerarquía de la Iglesia Católica, la principal federación sindical, la Confederación de Trabajadores de Venezuela (CTV), y la mayor organización empresarial, la Federación de Cámaras de Comercio y Producción (FEDECÁMARAS) (López Maya y Gómez Calcaño 1989). En un clima de amplia conflictividad social, en poco tiempo se va agudizando la confrontación entre un régimen político excluyente con estrechos márgenes de tolerancia para la disidencia y una izquierda crecientemente radicalizada. En el año 1960 se suspenden las garantías constitucionales y se clausuran los periódicos de izquierda. Los dirigentes sindicales de ésta son pasados al tribunal disciplinario de la CTV. La suspensión de garantías se reafirma el mismo día de la aprobación de la nueva Constitución en el año 1961. Bajo la influencia de la Revolución Cubana se inicia la lucha armada. Son inhabilitados el Partido Comunista de Venezuela (PCV) y el Movimiento de Izquierda Revolucionaria (MIR), primer desprendimiento de Acción Democrática. Después de varios años de lucha rural y urbana, que incluyó los levantamientos militares conocidos como el Carupanazo y el Porteñazo en el año 1962, la izquierda termina derrotada. Centenares de personas son detenidas, torturadas, desaparecidas, muertas.

  • The Role of the Oas in the Political Crisis of Venezuela

MA. November 2005. International Affairs The Role of OAS in the Political Crisis of Venezuela (144 pp.) Director of Thesis: Thomas Walker This thesis describes the intervention of the OAS in the Venezuelan political crisis between April 2002 and May 2003. Invoking for first time its Democratic Charter, the OAS became the principal actor in Venezuela using symbolic diplomacy, good offices, and third party mediation. The OAS clearly signaled to domestic and regional actors that antidemocratic actions would not be tolerated in the region and created conditions for local actors to engage in dialogue and negotiation which reduced the level of violence and conflict. Nevertheless, the OAS's intervention in Venezuela reveals the limited consensus among its members as to how the Inter-American Charter should be applied to democratic crises that are beyond the scope of coups and self-coups. Also, the creation of the OAS-backed roundtable and the Group of Friends of Gaviria reveals that the US dictated the terms under which the OAS intervention took place in Venezuela.

In 2006 voters reelected President Hugo Chavez Frias of the Fifth Republic Movement party. International observer missions deemed the elections generally free and fair but noted some irregularities. On September 26, voters elected 165 deputies to the National Assembly. Voting on election day was generally free and fair with scattered reports of irregularities. However, domestic election observers and opposition political parties criticized both the electoral law, claiming it violated the constitutional principle of proportionality, and the government's partisan use of state-owned media. There were instances in which elements of the security forces acted independently of civilian control. The following human rights problems were reported by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), the media, and in some cases the government itself: unlawful killings, including summary executions of criminal suspects; widespread criminal kidnappings for ransom; prison violence and harsh prison conditions; inadequate juvenile detention centers; arbitrary arrests

THEORETICAL INQUIRY INTO CIVIL WAR AND ITS REPERCUSSIONS ON INTERNATIONAL COLOMBIA-VENEZUELA CASE NICOLE JENNE* JUAN MASULLO J.** Abstract For scholars of Venezuela and Colombia the transnational dimensions of the Colombian armed con ict are an evident and hardly new fact. In the international literature in the elds of Con ict Studies and International Relations, however, some of the aspects of how Colombia’s internal con ict have affected the bilateral relations between Bogota and Caracas are hardly considered. In this paper we argue that the dominant orthodoxy that distinguishes between internal and external con ict stands in the way of a comprehensive understanding of how armed con ict within states can affect disputes among states.
