  • @joagalo

    Venezuela must definetely be One Party / Dominant Party State at least since 2015 (or also, de facto since earlier).
    Also in Colombia the conflict is far to be so big to this days.. And you can also include Araucanian conflict of Chile of the last years (that cover, however, very little area).
    But the first and the second topics I've mentioned are too much important to be omited.
    Venezuelan crisis is a key issue not only in the Caribbean region but also in the whole continent, because of the refugees and also the (relevant) political implicancies in the parties and ideologies of the rest of the countries. I personally think you must correct it and reload (of course it's a contructive and well-intended commentary! I appreciate very much your content).

      On the other hand, although Venezuela is a formally multi-party republic, in 2015 the ellected assambly was de facto ignored by the ejecutive power and remain eclipsed by an (also de facto) one-party ad hoc new assambly. if you don't want to label this as a one-party state, because of the lack of such formalism, you could add some "authoritarian / low democracy republic" category.

    Republic can means a lot of things in latin america: in 19th century, basicaly means oligarchy or caudillism. In 20th century basicaly means oligarchy or populist republicanism. In 21th we had true liberal republics, but countries like venezuela and el savador become electoral authocries.

      On the other hand, Venezuela, being friendly to Cuba, was strangled by US hostility at least just as much as from its own Chavista governments' corruption and inadequacy, while Fujimori posed no trouble to the US and Peru never suffered sanctions or blockades of sorts.
