Venezuela's Challenge for the 21st Century: Building a Democratic,
Humanist Socialism

"There is no doubt that the United States government understands the
significance of the current direction of the process in Venezuela. An
oil-rich country with a radical, anti-imperialist government which has
received repeated, indisputable democratic mandates and now advocates
for socialism, the government in Caracas poses the gravest `threat of
a good example' since the Cuban Revolution of 1959. As if taunting
Uncle Sam for its historic failure to destroy and isolate Cuba
completely, Chavez now flaunts his close friendship with Fidel Castro,
inviting thousands of Cuban doctors to Venezuela, and sending oil at
preferential prices to the energy-starved Caribbean island."
