Utilitarianism In Venezuela

This delicate subject is affecting millions Venezuelan citizens as well as raising concerns of family members abroad fearing for their kin. It has affected generations so much that many have decided to leave behind jobs, friends and family to flee from its own country. Venezuela is one of the most dangerous countries at present, a dangerous country where “economic crises and high inflation, like panic-induced runs on banks, generate self-serving, defensive behaviors that tend to spiral out of control,” (Corrales, 15). Venezuelan citizens are having a really difficult time realizing how bad their country is doing and how their families are trying to survive day by day.

Although he acknowledges the frustration and anger people feel when they are “faced with seemingly insurmountable odds”, he emphasizes the need to have patience in order to achieve “justice for our people”, thus excluding those who wish to “espouse violence” onto the people. Chavez’s appeal to morality and powerful choice of words greatly promotes his cause meanwhile stigmatizing the usage of nonviolence and the suffering that comes along with it.

Socialism was developed by Karl Marx in 1848. Socialists believe economic equality is bad for the society and the government is responsible for reducing it.Real socialism, by definition, is democratic. There are many different types of socialism, like democratic socialism, revolutionary socialism, utopian socialism, libertarian socialism, market socialism, eco-socialism, and Christian socialism. The former Soviet Union and Nazi Germany are historical examples of a socialist economy. And today's examples consist of Cuba, Venezuela, and China. Their main focus is on profit being distributed among society/workforce to complement individual

The concentration of power under President Hugo Chávez has taken a heavy toll on human rights in Venezuela. School students and people are getting assaulted everyday, there is definitely a lack of fairness or human rights. It is in human nature, when we get more power we tend to abuse it weather its for good or bad. In this case, the power is being used in the wrong way. This abuse and corruption has been going on for years. Back in February 2014, students went against the government

The use of violent resistance by subaltern groups is the most common form of resistance when we think about revolution and change. This form of resistance occurs when elite power structures are attacked by the marginalized in society. In particular, the violent resistance movement led by Maria Lopez in chapter 3 highlights the brutality that is caused by violent revolutions. This resistance movement used any means necessary to eradicate any people or symbols of the Spanish. This subaltern group used murder, torture, and control as a means to achieve social change. Furthermore, the authors point out the

Long has it been known that South America has more than its fair share of crime and violence. This was seen globally during the 2016 Rio De Janeiro Olympics in the country of Brazil. Onlookers were horrified by the number of reports, and videos showing tourists being attacked and robbed by locals. Brazil is not the only country in South America that has a problem with violence though, due to widespread poverty many countries struggle to maintain lawfulness. One of those countries is Venezuela, a socialist country on the verge of complete societal collapse. Crime and with it, violence runs rampant through Venezuela, in large part because of a corrupt government that either refuses to acknowledge the problems or refuses to do anything about them.

Nicolas Maduro, president of Venezuela has been trying to change the constitutional body of Venezuela which has lead people to think he is on the path of dictatorship. Nicolas Maduro has been saying it is for the good of the people that he is going to take over the Congress, but the people of Venezuela disagree. This made people want him to resign and has lead to very violent protest between the two. These actions have totally reflected on revolution because it is about the people of Venezuela protesting against Nicolas Maduro and how they are rebelling.

Instead, the journalist uses the people themselves to show how bad daily life is in Venezuela. He uses both picture and literary evidence to support his main idea. He even writes about times the president of Venezuela has outright lied to the people of his nation, and how the protests have even gotten right the Presidential Palace’s footsteps. He even contrasts Maduro’s presidency to Hugo Chavez, and notes that Chavez did not let his people starve. Which is very much true.

Things are not going well in Venezuela. As a matter of fact, things are horrible. 700% inflation is causing citizens to not be able to afford basic commodities. Rolling blackouts are causing infant deaths in hospitals. Last but not least, Caracas currently has the highest murder rate worldwide.

Venezuela had always been a wealthy country in which people had a great life and everything they could ask for. They had a dictatorship hidden behind a democratic institution in control of the ex-president Hugo Chaves, which people thought was a good government because they had it all. But all these changed when Chaves passed away and, actual president, Nicolas Maduro came to power. He established a socialist dictatorship which has been prejudicial to the country’s economy and people. Since his rise to power, many multinational franchises have been leaving the country because of its no-profit structure. Markets don’t get enough goods, which made people upset and even angry. Prices raised in such a way that people couldn’t buy food for their families with the money they made. So, the people

Venezuela is a country located in the northern part of South America, bordering the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean with a population over 30 million. It has one of the biggest oil reserves in the world. Nevertheless, its poverty reached over 70% within their families. What is far from attractive is the desperate and chaotic situation that surrounds the nation, marked by violent protests from young students and government opposition. Since the last year at the beginning of February, the country has been ensnared by protests, violence, and death. Already one of the most violent places on Earth. A person is murdered every 21 minutes and there were roughly twenty-four thousand violent deaths last year. The country

With over 400 individuals arrested for looting and inciting riots, civil unrest continues throughout Venezuela. Turmoil continues to plague the country nationwide as failed economic policies, political chaos, and energy disruptions tighten its grip on the frustrated population. The murder rate is increasing as government security forces seek to control crowds engaged in political demonstration, violence, and looting.

Venezuela is not facing a famine, but improvements in poverty and nutrition were achieved between 2003 and 2012 have been almost completely worn, and well-being of the population is deteriorating dramatically. Even amid the apparent abundance a few years ago, studies by the National Institute of Nutrition and UNICEF revealed disturbing evidence of chronic malnutrition. The government 's decision to hide the real situation by refusing to publish statistics per- continents will make the crisis much more difficult to handle. In the second half of 2013, according to the INE, 22.3 % of Venezuelans lived in poverty, and other 9.8 in extreme poverty. While there have been no published figures for 2014 Vice President Jorge Arreaza announced at the annual conference of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) that extreme poverty had declined by 5.4%, a figure that contradicts the findings of several recent independent studies. Noting the deterioration of all relevant indicators (including inflation, food shortages, unemployment, budget cuts and health coverage), the human rights organization Provide estimated that by the end of 2015 will have the same number of poor people in the 2000 (almost eleven million). This calculation was based on a study (LSMS) conducted in 2014 by three major universities, which indicated that 48.4% of households were living in poverty. The authors warned that up to a third of them had fallen into poverty situation recently and that,

Though Maduros policies aligned with Chavez, the inflation rate was over 60%. When looking and resource shortages and obvious violence of protesters versus the government it creates growing resentment. Maduro struggles to maintain power but crime rates are increasing and so is poverty. There seems to be growing resentment because MAduro is not Chavez and the price of oil continues to drop, because people don’t feel connected to maduro he is used as the scapegoat for these economic issues and therefore people don’t trust their government as fit to provide food shelter and safety for them. This causes an illegitimate government.

Many United States citizens are frightened by the word Socialism. However, the predominant ideology in most Third World countries is socialism. There are many reasons why Third World countries have turned to socialism as their form of government. The main reason the Third World has taken on the concept of socialism is because of the history of feudalism and colonialism that these countries faced for so many years. Socialism was seen as a way to reform the land of many underdeveloped countries. Socialism believes the government needs to intervene to make sure no feudalism or unjust land ownership systems are being enforced.
