Venezuela Students Seeking to Create a New Society – Cato Institute hears three perspectives of the student movement
Tagged: Hugo Chavez, student, Venezuela
The free world was jubilant last December when Venezuela President Hugo Chavez suffered an electoral rejection of his referendum to amend the Venezuela constitution.
By the most narrow of margins—51 to 49 percent—the voters turned down a proposal that would have allowed Chavez to run for president indefinitely, terminate Venezuela’s central bank’s autonomy, and cut the work week.
Little is known in the U.S. about the student movement or its leaders who were responsible for Chavez’ defeat. Political opposition that predates Chavez had been a different sort, e.g., opposition political parties.”*
