Bolivar: People Never Correlated With Politics
Bolivar believed that people never interfered with politics. He said Americans were politically non-existent. THey’d been harassed by a behavior that took away their rights but kept them unaware of public affairs. He thought that because the people are not fully aware of what goes on in politics. They aren’t ready for a republican form of government. The people do not know what will be happening, so how will they hold power, let alone elect representatives that will help “guide” their country?

    Simon Bolivar's Letter To Venezuela

    He is known as, “The Liberator” of Gran Columbia or the one who declared northern south america’s independence. Gran Colombia was a title given to the modern countries, Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Columbia, Brazil, and Panama which was his ideal unity of Latin America. He was originally born in Venezuela and at a young age, was influenced by the Age of Enlightenment. After several tragic events in his life, he sworn to achieve the independence of venezuela from Spain’s authority. This eventually lead him to write this letter to accomplish his mission. This letter is biased because Bolivar was born in Venezuela, which was his home country, meaning he wanted the best for it; if he would not have been from there, then his motivation would not have been so high, nor would the letter emphasis how much they were being mistreated by foreigners. If this were to be written by a Spanish man on witnessing how conditions where in Gran Colombia he would not have explained how harshly people lived, but try to go around that topic. Bolivar cared for his country, that is why he tried to help it; the letter is…

    Mass Uprising Defeats CIA Coup in Venezuela

    It was a genuine victory of people's power in the first open clash of social classes in the oil-rich South American country. But the victory also lays bare the fundamental question of the Venezuelan Revolution: how to organize the popular classes--the workers, peasants, soldiers and students--to defend the revolution against further assaults by the propertied oligarchy and the weight of U.S. imperialism.…

    Summary of Andrew Delbanco

    The next perspective that Delbanco utilized regarded politics. He quoted Thomas Jefferson, who once said that, "the basis of our government is the opinion of the people." Delbanco reiterated his interpretation of this statement by stating that, "If the new republic was to endure, it required, above all, an educated citizenry." Delbanco established that Jefferson's concept about educated citizens should be held at a higher importance than ever, especially with all of the misleading advertising techniques, corrupt political campaigns, and differed views that present-day society bombards its constituents with. He also made the…

Hugo Chávez has been president of Venezuela for fourteen years and was reelected for another six years the past October.

    Division in Political Attitudes in Bolivia

    In Latin America, most countries suffer of repeated economic crises, unacceptable levels of poverty and increasing levels of inequality, as Judith Teichman mentions in her work “Redistribute Conflict and Social Policy in Latin America”, and Bolivia is no exemption. All the problems the country has gone through reflect in the political instability since 1982, when the military dictatorship leaded by General Luiz Garcia Meza ended (Luis Garcia Mesa Tejada, 2010). Since then, Bolivia has elected many different Presidents, who have completely different visions of the future for Bolivia, which might be a cause for the low capacity Bolivia has.…

    Article Analysis Venzuela Food Shortage

    As a writer of the Guardian newspaper, Lopez seems to have the same views. The Guardian is recognized as left wing, they aim to support those who cannot support themselves and are idealist who believes in equality, thus supporting Lopez’s view. This left wing approach is presented in the subheading, as it reveals “Venezuelan president blames CIA,” situating this as a subheading infers that the author also agrees with the president, hence the article includes elements of being bias. Lopez seems to support former president Hugo Chavez, as he used The Food and Agriculture Organisation figures to prove that famine indicators have more than halved “to less than 5% since Chavez came to power,” stating that Chavez assisted in the decrease of starvation within the Latin American nation. The article targets political and economic readers, which is displayed through the praise given to Chavez and the reason why current president Maduro is blaming CIA (for concocting a plan “to destabilize his government, sabotage the oil industry and trigger power cuts.”) The purpose of this article is to…
