Available here for the first time in English, Romulo Betancourt has been a Spanish-language classic in Venezuela since its publication in 2013. This book is an extended essay on a transformational figure in the country's history from an internationally-renowned public intellectual, German Carrera Damas. In this work, Carrera Damas captures a significant transition for the nation that began in the 1940s when Rmulo Betancourt and his colleagues overthrew the ruling military dictatorship and established a modern democratic regime. However, the system Betancourt created eventually deteriorated after his presidency. Carrera Damas not only delves into the evolving political thought of a leader who remained dedicated to his cause throughout a varied career, but also offers insights on what it takes to create and sustain a democratic republic under difficult circumstances. As the country's current economic and political crisis intensifies, this book will help English speakers understand the cultural context of Venezuela's contemporary moment as well as set a historical precedent for the next stages in the development of its position in the world.
