After eight years already in power, Hugo Chavez got reelected in December 2006. He hasn't yet managed to reduce the huge social fracture in Venezuela, but with his rhetoric and social programs he awakens the dignity and fuels hope among the poor. Starting his new term, he announced the coming of a new form socialism, so called “plural socialism”, based on the ideas of French Revolution. However, as the Venezuelan Revolution is made up of at least two different realities, with divided and weak opposition and ripe crime in capital Caracas, its future remains to be seen.
