Most publications on the political situation in Venezuela are journalistic and lack a scientific, and particularly sociological, approach. Chavez's Children: Ideology, Education, and Society in Latin America is the first sociological work on the ideological system in Venezuela. This book deals with the deep social structures of Chavez's power, its origins, its evolution in history, its dynamics, its institutionalizations, and its relationships with the educational system. By using an empirical analysis of Bolivarian schools and fieldwork on over 300 students, Chavez's Children reconstructs the history of revolutionary movements in Venezuela and advocates a model of analysis on Latin American socio-revolutionary phenomena. This English language edition will be a great opportunity for Latin American experts as well as interested readers to uncover the system behind Chavez's power.

This book provides a comprehensive interpretation of the multiple manifestations of populism using Italy, the only country amongst consolidated constitutional democracies in which populist political forces have been in government on various occasions since the early 1990s, as the starting point and benchmark. Populism is a complex, multi-faceted political phenomenon which redefines many of the essential characteristics of democracy; participation, representation, and political conflict. This book considers contemporary versions of populism that pose a real challenge to representative and constitutional democracy. Contributors provide an integrative interpretation of populism and analyse its principal historical, social and politico-legal variables to provide a multi-dimensional reflection on the concept of populism, comprehensive analysis of the populist phenomenon and a theoretical and comparative perspective on the diverse political experiences of populism. Based on conceptual and interdisciplinary reflections from expert authors, this book will be of great interest to scholars and post-graduate students of cultural studies, European studies, political sociology, political science, comparative politics, political philosophy, and political theory with an interest in a comparative and interdisciplinary theory of populism and its manifestations.

• Reseña biográfica.

Exhibition of textile art by Mirta "Nená" Nadal de Badaró (Uruguy 1927) who mixes natural and synthetic fibers in her work and adds an absolutely innovative element in this context, which is not to sew, but to stick with heat. Thus, with her pyrography she substantively modifies something as feminine as sewing, by means of this technique of joining materials through heat. "La exposición Puntadas de luz es apenas una aproximación al gran aporte de Mirta Nadal de Badaró a la cultura uruguaya a lo largo de su extensa trayectoria. Sin embargo, se considera un paso importante ya que permite dar a conocer su obra plástica que ha permanecido oculta durante décadas, y dar inicio a una investigación en las diversas áreas de su fecunda labor"--Colophon.
