Contemporary History of Venezuela is a documentary and critical review of its recent history, an exhaustive gloss of the facts and circumstances that took place in a crucial stretch of the eventful republican life of this country, one of the richest in Latin America. This volume makes known to the new generations of the enormous military influence in all periods, including the democratic one in the best forty years of that history, and the communist or pseudo-communist one, more recently. The author criticizes in a reasoned and argued manner the attempt to maintain in the 21st century the militarist hegemony in the management of the State, a hegemony that was lavished throughout the 19th century and a good part of the 20th century. After the years of democracy from 1958 to 1998, to see the rebirth of militarism, with the justification of a series of reminiscences of the old communist theories, of the dictatorship of the proletariat or whatever you want to call it, is for Antonio Ecarri Bolivar a historical regression, even though it pretends to be covered by the supposed ethical mantle of a "socialism of the 21st century". A book essential for all those who want to delve into the recent past of a great country, as beautiful as it is tormented.
