The Authoritarian and Conservative Turn of Nicolás Maduro
Résumé
Venezuela is an example that runs counter to all the contributions in this book. On the face of it, there has been no change of government since 1999, and the current head of state, Nicolás Maduro, continues to develop a socialist and revolutionary rhetoric in the tradition of his predecessor Hugo Chávez. Governing a country for more than two decades, now in a context of economic collapse, is a challenge and Nicolás Maduro's continued rule may thus be an enigma.
