Review (PDF) Hugo Chávez: Mi Primera Vida: Conversaciones Con Hugo Chávez (Spanish Edition)
Pocos personajes de la historia reciente han tenido el impacto de Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías (1954-2013). Presidente de Venezuela desde 1999 hasta 2013, su mensaje de las realizaciones de la Revolución Bolivariana inició un movimiento en América Latina que abrió el camino para dirigentes nuevos, de origen sindical, militante social, militar o hasta guerrillero: Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva y Dilma Rousseff en Brasil, Evo Morales en Bolivia, Rafael Correa en Ecuador, Néstor Kirchner y Cristina Fernández en Argentina, Tabaré Vázquez y José “Pepe” Mujica en Uruguay, y tantos otros. En este revelador libro, fruto de cinco años de trabajo y más de doscientas horas de conversaciones con Chávez, Ignacio Ramonet logra retratar al dirigente venezolano a través de sus propias palabras. ¿Quién era Chávez antes de convertirse en una personalidad pública universalmente conocida? ¿Cómo fue su infancia? ¿Cómo se formó? ¿Cuándo se inició en la política? ¿Cuáles fueron sus lecturas? ¿Qué influencias recibió? ¿Cuál era su visión geopolítica? ¿Qué corriente ideológica reclamaba? Estas memorias dialogadas, centradas en la primera etapa de la vida del presidente venezolano, clave y explicación de su posterior trayectoria, son una obra de historia insoslayable para quien quiera entender el arranque del siglo— en América Latina y el mundo.

Enjoy, If you want to read the story of Someone who killed thousand of people, this man was capable to divide the Venezuelans in 2 sides (The opposition: A.K.A: "Majunches", "Escualidos", "Pitiyankees (Little Yankees)" and their supporters, fed with hate and irrational dispute between the poor population and those who at least have something (not only the rich people), giving to they enough courage to them to hate. When I was young I remembered that I played in the streets with the neighbors, and many of them were poorer than me, and no matter how much money they had, no matter where were you from (or your parents), we were able to share the same place to play and enjoy not taking in consideration if they were rich or Poor. Hugo Chavez changed it, giving to the poor courage to envy and hate those who had more luck than them, feeding with hate those people, dividing families, dividing friendships and even relationships broken and divorces thanks to him.As Venezuelan, I can said, this Mr was capable to ruin a wealth country like Venezuela, during this presidential period the barrel of oil was around (And even above) the 100$ margin, when so many Venezuelans lives in poverty, without enough food to buy in the supermarket, or medicines in the drugstores. This Sr made the impossible, ruin a country like Venezuela due to his conspiration theory and the Castro Family support. Kidnapping the private companies, and nationalizing everything on his sight, now Venezuela entirely depends on importations due to the chain of terrible choices made by this Sr.Anyway, Freedom of Speech, (In Venezuela this words mean nothing), so if you have enough courage to buy and read the story of a postmodern dictator, enjoy.
Ramonet shows us the human side of el comandante. It show us his roots and it is easy to understand why Chavez became such charismatic leader. Furthermore, Ramonet brings down the myth and stereotype created Chavez's opponents, of an 'ignorant military gorilla'. Great read and insightful. Thank you Ignacio Ramonet.
love the book love the man he will be in all of us the love equality peace rights not the BS that our politicians are telling us
Interesting, another point of view...
Well written story that brings a different light not only about Chavez's life and purposes, but about the new realities of the continent as a whole. A must read for those would like to revive the ideas of our independence heroes. Thanks to Ignacio Ramonet!!
