The third installment of our series on the constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. We pick up the story right after the constituent assembly of 1999, highlighting key events of the 2000s including the 2002 coup attempt, the oil lockdown, the recall referendum, Chávez's reelection, and the 2007 constitutional referendum. We then dive deep into the successes and failures of the educational reforms, and begin working through some of the civil rights reforms, leaving it off on freedom of the press. We pick it up again in part 2 of this Episode with the Afro-Venezuelan struggle so make sure to check that out to get the whole chat.
