TEXT 1

THE SOCIALISM OF THE 21ST

CENTURY: THE VENEZUELAN CASE STUDY

In Porto Alegre, Hugo Chvez declares that Socialism of the 21st century will be created in

Venezuela. Chvez repeats that promise, adding that Socialism of the 21st century will be basedon solidarity, fraternity, love, justice, liberty and equality. Chvez also emphasizes that the

Venezuelan state is an important actor in that construction and the Venezuelan people promote

that reality. Chvez wins the national elections for the first time in 1998 and became President.Chvez consolidates his power gradually. Now, eight years later, Venezuela is closer to

socialism, but the road ahead is still very long, obstacles are formidable, and the progress is

precarious.
