A Review of The Fernando Coronil Reader
The Fernando Coronil Reader. The Struggle for Life is the Matter by Fernando Coronil; Julie Skurski, et al. (eds.) (Duke University Press, 2019)

That, it’s worth saying, is the magic of Fernando—as the person he was and in his texts—the ability to overcome the determinism of geography and of time, of theories and ideologies.

Hugo Chávez
President of Venezuela from 1999 to 2013
For other people named Hugo Chávez, see Hugo Chávez (disambiguation).
Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías[b] (; Spanish:[ˈuɣorafaˈelˈtʃaβesˈfɾi.as]ⓘ; 28 July 1954 – 5 March 2013) was a Venezuelan politician, revolutionary, and military officer who served as the 52nd president of Venezuela from 1999 until his death in 2013, except for a brief period of forty-seven hours in 2002. Chávez was also leader of the Fifth Republic Movement political party from its foundation in 1997 until 2007, when it merged with several other parties to form the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), which he led until 2012.
Born into a middle-class family in Sabaneta, Barinas, Chávez became a career military officer. After becoming dissatisfied with the Venezuelan political system based on the Puntofijo Pact,[1] he founded the clandestine Revolutionary Bolivarian Movement-200 (MBR-200) in the early 1980s. Chávez led the MBR-200 in its unsuccessful coup d'état against the Democratic Action government of President Carlos Andrés Pérez in 1992, for which he was imprisoned. Pardoned from prison two years later, he founded the Fifth Republic Movement political party, and then receiving 56.2% of the vote, was elected
