Summary/Abstract |
Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez fended off a spirited challenge by Governor Henrique Capriles this fall. But continuing questions about Chavez's health and the country's dismal governance suggest that change may be coming soon. Looking ahead, the opposition will need to address concerns by the very poor that social spending will dry up if Chávez is no longer in office. Meanwhile, political differences and power struggles, and a sense of demoralization, risk undermining Capriles' diverse coalition. The regional scenario would look very different without Chávez. External players should restrain from meddling during this period of uncertainty. Instead, support should focus on trying to ensure that Venezuelans continue to rely on the ballot box in determining the course of a country facing so many daunting problems.

Just one month before Barack Obama's historic
inauguration, all 33 of the United States' southern
neighbors convened at an unprecedented
"mega-summit" hosted by Brazil, Latin America's
largest country and a rising global power. The
gathering at Costa do Sauipe, in Brazil's eastern
state of Bahia, showcased yet another of the regional
arrangements that are emerging to deal
with a variety of vexing issues.

Summary/Abstract |
Washington’s policy of isolating Cuba succeeded only in alienating most of Latin America. Obama’s new course has been welcomed, though other irritants, such as US immigration policy, remain.
