Abstract

Dolaskom Huga Chaveza na vlast u Venezueli došlo je do promjene na političkoj karti Latinske Amerike. Potpomognuta prihodima od prodaje nafte, Venezuela je počela širiti svoj utjecaj na zemlje regije suprotno interesima SAD-a te su slične stranke ljevice došle na vlast u mnogim zemljama regije. Takva situacija potrajala je dok Venezuela nije zapala u ekonomsku krizu i do smrti Huga Chaveza. Hugo Chavez nije doveo do revolucije u Latinskoj Americi, već je njegova vladavina bila čisti populizam koji se uspijevao održati sve dok je bilo novca. Danas je Venezuela država u velikim ekonomskim problemima i kojoj prijeti opasnost od promjene režima pod utjecajem SAD-a.

Abstract (english)

When Hugo Chavez came to office in Venezuela there had been a change in the political landscape in Latin America. Aided by oil revenues, Venezuela began expanding its influence on the countries of the region opposite to the interests of the USA, and similar left-wing parties rose to power in many countries of the region. The situation lasted up until Venezuela fell into an economic crisis and Hugo Chavez died. Hugo Chavez did not lead to a revolution in Latin America, but his ruling was pure populism which managed to survive until there was no money left. Today, Venezuela is a country in deep economic crisis and faces the danger of regime change under the influence of the USA.
