Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of an oil boom that spirals into economic decline due to corruption and mismanagement, the story introduces Hugo Chávez, an unknown military figure poised to lead a profound transformation in Venezuela. Following a coup, he evolves from prisoner to president, advocating for deep societal changes through a new Constitution and a "third way" political ideology. His vision, influenced by sociologist Heinz Dieterich Steffan, culminates in the establishment of Socialism of the 21st Century, provoking backlash from right-wing interests.
