Ep 29: Bolívar, Chávez, and Maduro. A Concise History of Venezuela.
Manage episode 441736544 series 3556649
In this latest episode of Headlines and History we explore the history of Venezuela through three of its more influential leaders: Simón Bolívar, Hugo Chávez, and Nicolás Maduro. This we are doing in preparation for next week's show when I sit down with Alexandra Winkler, a Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) fellow to discuss the current state of Venezuela. We will begin with how and why Simón Bolívar came to create an independent Venezuela, followed by how Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro, through socialist principles and egomania, ruined it. Enjoy!
