Description:A revolutionary process is unfolding in Venezuela, part of a continental rebellion unparalleled since the 1960s and ’70s. Bourgeois power is being challenged by the emergence of a counter-power of the working classes. The reforms of the Chavez government have re-ignited the class struggle after years of defeat and decay of the left. This is not a simple replay of the Salvador Allende government in Chile 30 years ago. The Venezuelan army is now dominated by a revolutionary current of officers and soldiers. Chavez himself has radicalised and fallen back, not on the institutions of bourgeois democracy but on the revolutionary power of the working masses. Internationally the left has become all too accustomed to analysing defeat and is unfamiliar with the measure of a revolution. The development of the Venezuelan class struggle is an important opportunity to re-acquaint ourselves with the real-world development of class consciousness and the tactical complexities of a life-and-death struggle for power. This publication is only a condensed introduction to the evolution of the struggle and its key challenges but we hope that it might inspire others to study the Venezuelan revolution and draw from it the inspiration now feeding rebellion across Latin America.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
