Pirates of the Caribbean: Axis of Hope

by Tariq Ali - £14.99  Verso (2006)
hardback    ISBN 13: 9781844671021 | ISBN 10: 184467102x

Since 1998, the Bolivarian revolution in Venezuela has brought Hugo Chavez to world attention as the foremost challenger of the neoliberal consensus and American foreign policy. While Chavez's radical social-democratic reforms have brought him worldwide acclaim amongst the poor, he has attracted intense hostility from Venezuelan elites and Western governments.
 
Drawing on first-hand experience of Venezuela and meetings with Chavez, Tariq Ali shows how Chavez's views have polarised Latin America and examines the hostility directed against his administration. Ali discusses the enormous influence of Fidel Castro on both Chavez and Evo Morales, the newly elected President of Bolivia, and, reflecting on a recent trip to Havana, contrasts the Cuban and Venezuelan revolutionary process.
 
Pirates of the Caribbean guides us through a world divided between priviledge and poverty, a continent that is once again on the march.
