Born in a small town, Chávez entered the military academy and was drawn to leftist politics and a new sense of himself as predestined to change the fortunes of his country--and of Latin America. By day a family man and a military officer, by night he secretly recruited insurgents to overthrow the government. His coup attempt failed, but laid the groundwork for his ascension to the presidency eight years later. Chávez's revolutionary "Bolivarian" government stresses economic reforms meant to discourage corruption and empower the poor--yet the leader spends thousands a day on himself and cozies up to Arab oil elites. Venezuelan journalists Marcano and Barrera Tyszka explore the often crude public figure who condemns George W. Bush in fiery language but at the same time hires lobbyists to improve his country's image in the West.--From publisher description. 000318403 60010 $$aChávez Frías, Hugo. 000318403 650_0 $$aPresidents$$zVenezuela$$vBiography. 000318403 651_0 $$aVenezuela$$xHistory$$y1974-1999. 000318403 651_0 $$aVenezuela$$xHistory$$y1999- 000318403 7001_ $$aBarrera, Alberto. 000318403 7001_ $$aCordero, Kristina. 000318403 85200 $$bgen$$hF2328.52.C48$$iM3713$$i2007 000318403 85641 $$3Table of contents only$$uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0713/2007010041.html 000318403 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:318403$$pGLOBAL_SET 000318403 980__ $$aBIB 000318403 980__ $$aBOOK 000318403 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
