Identifier	Thesis 1924
Author	Cinquegrana, Carla M.
Title	The controversial presidency of Hugo Chávez Frías
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2007
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	This thesis represents an effort to evaluate the socialist reforms Hugo Chavez has implemented in Venezuela since his ascent to the Presidency in 1998. In order to understand Chavez's ideologies, the initial chapters of this thesis put Venezuela's political and economic problems into social and historical perspective. As a result of European colonialism and a series of oppressive dictatorships, Hugo Chavez inherited a society characterized by massive poverty and substantial disenfranchisement of a significant minority of the population. This research also outlines the major biographical events that shaped Hugo Chavez into the leader he is today. Born into poverty, many analysts argue that Chavez's policies and aspirations have psychological as well as historical roots. Finally, the research focuses on the domestic and foreign policies of President Cahvez. Domestically, this research analyzes constitutional and social reforms he has implemented; in addition, it analyzes the impact of the 2002 coup attempt and oil strike. These events moved Chavez to adopt policies that were even more radical than those preceding the coup and the strike. In Chapter Five, the thesis closely examines and evaluates President Hugo Chavez's anti-capitalist foreign policies, especially his nation's relationship with the United States of America and the administration of President W. George Bush. Ultimately, this thesis makes an assessment of the impact of the cumulative actions Chavez has made throughout his presidency.
