Gregory Wilpert, who lived in Venezuela between 2000 and 2008, taught at the Central University of Venezuela and worked as a freelance journalist — looks at the achievements, failures and life of the leader of Venezuela’s Bolivarian Revolution.

Wilpert, who also wrote the book Changing Venezuela by Taking Power, edits the highly informative blob Venezuela Analysis, which provides regular updates and some of the best analysis of what is happening on the ground in Venezuela, along with ongoing analysis of US antagonism of that South American country.
