What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

“A. C. Clark’s book is a devastating exposé of Hugo Chávez’s authoritarian regime. By providing historical context, an insight into the political, social and even psychological complexities that helped Chávez undermine democracy from within, and clear examples of the assault against freedom and private property in Venezuela, The Revolutionary Has No Clothes will serve to demythify the Bolivarian farce that has duped not a few intellectuals in the West.” —Alvaro Vargas Llosa, The Independent Institute

“A. C. Clark’s extensive research successfully demythologizes the Chávez regime and gives a vivid exposé of life under his presidency. The Revolutionary Has No Clothes is an important contribution to the international debate on contemporary Latin American politics and should be read by anyone who has an interest in Hugo Chávez and the socialist movement he purports to lead.” —Vanessa Neumann, Ph.D., Editor-at-Large, Diplomat

“Venezuela somehow escapes the U.S. State Department’s classification of ‘State Sponsor of Terrorism.’ We can only hope officials at Foggy Bottom quickly get a copy of A. C. Clark’s superbly researched and documented book. Their ‘oversight’ would then be inexcusable. This book is an excellent antidote to the reams of misinformation gushing from Hugo Chávez’s U.S. propagandists—including the hundreds on his payroll.” —Humberto Fontova , author of Exposing the Real Che Guevara
