Contents/Summary
- Summary
- In 2001, the Venezuelan government led by left-wing president Hugo Chavez passes a radical new land reform law that ignites a wave of violence in the countryside, leading to the death of large numbers of small farmers. Unable to defend themselves against attacks perpetrated by wealthy elites, impoverished agricultural workers seek justice in the bureaucracy laden offices of the nation’s ineffective and unresponsive legal system.
