La política exterior de Venezuela en el Caribe

Abstract

This article examines both the challenges and the achievements reached by Venezuela’s foreign policy in the Caribbean. In little over a decade, this South American country has suggested novel and unique international dynamics which have derived into a foreign policy created around unity and integration in Latin America. The alternative models have been put into practice through two integration schemes that have turned to be fundamental for the Caribbean region during the latest years: Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America and Petrocaribe.
