Abstract
The paper labels Hugo Chavez as both the most admired and feared leader in Latin America. The paper discusses how Chavez's populist ideals and agenda easily won him respect and trust within the poorest Venezuelan communities. The paper looks at his critics, however, who include the Colombian government, the United States, some of the European Union and many middle and upper class Venezuelans. The paper describes how he has developed programs, policies and legislation that have brought the unemployment rate down, the economy up and the people of Venezuela to a whole new standard of living.
From the Paper
"December 6, 1998, Venezuela elected a socialist democrat, the charismatic Hugo Chavez, as its new president, replacing the previous government of Rafael Caldera Rodriguez. As President, Chavez immediately proceeded to implement his Bolivarian Revolution policies of aiding the poor and disenfranchised as well as promoting unification in Latin America. This revolution compounded with his distrust of liberalist nations, such as the United States, has made Hugo Chavez both the most admired and feared leader in Latin America."

Abstract
This paper is a political study that analyzes the fascist tendencies of the Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, within the context of his leadership in radical South American politics. The author explains that by examining his role through a fascist perspective, one can realize the growing animosity toward capitalism and the rise of a extremist socialist government that is becoming increasingly dictatorial, rather than democratically implemented in the Venezuelan government.
From the Paper
"Often, the conflict of economics is the main reason why Chavez creates so much animosity in his foreign policy, since he is seeking to radically separate foreign dominance over monetary profits made by colonial European and North American companies. The pro-Chavez supporters often cite the massive influence that the United States and the European nations wield over the banking and oil institutions that dominate the country. Currently, these foreign companies have a free reign to take many of the natural resources from the Venezuelan's, and do not contribute to the well being of the majority of peoples that must collect and distribute these resources outside of their own country. This issue has created a government that is controlled through the economic power of the American banks that continue to limit the social and governmental autonomy of Venezuela by controlling monetary value, as well as having massive lending power through loans to dictate the course of governmental policy. In this manner, pro-Chavez supporters often see a leader that is seeking to stop this type of economic imperialism through socialist values that will re-distribute the wealth of these international companies for the greater good of his people. Within Venezuela certain citizens feel that he is working for their best interests, which has not always been the case through the foreign imperialism of governments past:"

Abstract
This paper explains that corruption and dissatisfaction with the Venezuela democratic government brought Hugo Chavez to power. The author underscores that, because of Chavez's hostility towards the United States and the dependency of the U.S. on Venezuelan oil, an alternative to the current state of affairs between the US and Venezuela must be developed. The paper explores several possible alternatives to the current state of affairs between Venezuela and the United States, all carry differing costs and benefits the United States. These include using an oil embargo against Venezuela, which would severely affect the popularity of Chavez's government by cutting the funding for several of his popular social programs, developing anti-Chavez, pro-U.S. sentiment in the region of Latin America in an effort to use multilateral cooperation to control Chavez and his foreign policy agendam, and ignoring Chavez's anti-U.S. rhetoric and developing bilateral relations dealing with several issues of mutual concern. The paper concludes that the best alternative is using multilateral support to control Chavez, which has both the greatest benefit and the lowest cost and could help U.S. and Latin American relations in the future.

From the Paper
"Costs to developing this alternative are relatively few and would only significantly affect American policy in the Latin American region with relatively little impact on domestic issues. While the turbulent history of U.S.-Latin American relations have led to a large amount of hostility and suspicion on the part of Latin American governments towards any American involvement in the region, such a low opinion of the United States must change in order to develop the regional support necessary to control Chavez."

Abstract
This paper presents Cesar Chavez as one of the most historically significant figures associated with the civil rights movement. The paper discusses Chavez's actions on behalf of the Latino farm worker. The paper explores Chavez's quiet perseverance, which created a legacy of change and awareness. The paper explains how Chavez learned, through his own experiences and through the example of historically great and influential teachers, that the best way to change those things that need to be changed is to first understand them through listening and then act on them through aggressive nonviolence.
From the Paper
"The Latino farm worker was a quiet voice in the wilderness of the American market economy. Many migrant workers were mistreated and worked for slave like wages that rarely kept their family fed and helped them live almost exclusively in squalor. They were given little for the backbreaking work they did, while they attempted to feed clothe and educate themselves and their children. Yet, as loud a voice as the name, Cesar Chaves implies his tactics were often as quiet as the meek voices of those he attempted to help. It was with this quiet perseverance that Chavez created a legacy of change and awareness."

Abstract
This paper discusses the French author, Victor Hugo, and compares him to the protagonist of the literary work, "Les Miserables". The paper contends that Hugo parallels many of the qualities of Jean Valjean, the main character in "Les Miserables". The paper examines the social consciousness displayed in many of Hugo's novels, claiming that it is evidence of the conscience developed over a lifetime of involvement in politics and revolutionary thought.
From the Paper
"Hugo used his literary power to influence political thinking of his time, as well as to raise consciousness regarding the poor, children and other victims of the political upheaval caused by the French Revolution. The author has come to represent the literary movement of French Romanticism. This movement, with its imagination, subjectivity, freedom of thought, and idealization of nature fused itself well with Hugo's humanistic and somewhat rebellious personality. Together with this Hugo's political views leaned towards social liberty, which he combined in his idealism, and he saw 1830 as the year marking the emergence of both (Kirjasto). Hugo and his contemporaries, like many today, saw the role of the artist as social commentator and director. Hugo fulfilled this role admirably by adhering to the political views he held even in the face of significant political opposition. He shows his strongly principled character by never shying away from subject matter that may prove socially and politically inflammatory. The same strong principles can be seen in Jean Valjean, the main character of Les Miserables."

Abstract
The paper looks closely at a biography of Cesar Chavez, written by Ferriss and Sandoval and compares his struggle for social justice with the concepts written about in Takaki's "Strangers from a Different Shore." The paper specifically uses the ideas of racial uniforming, ethnic solidarity and ethnic antagonism to explore the troubles Chavez faced and the troubles still existing today.
From the Paper
"Social justice, while an element of the Catholic faith which Cesar Chavez ascribed too, is a deeply personal and humanistic need. Susan Ferriss and Ricardo Sandoval's (1997) biography of Cesar Chavez, entitled "The Fight in the Fields: Cesar Chavez and the Farm-worker's Movement," showcases the life, actions and philosophy of the central leader in the fight for rights for Mexican American farm-workers. In this work, the concepts described in Ronald Takaki's (1998) "A History of Asian Americans: Strangers from a Different Shore," namely racial uniforming, ethnic solidarity and ethnic antagonism are alluded to and described in their relation to the struggle made for equal rights by the Mexican farm-workers. The most obvious, or most visual, element of American racism takes the form of what can be described as a racial uniform."

From the Paper
" Though both Leon Battista Alberti (1404-1472) and Victor Marie Hugo (1802-1885) looked to the past for examples for contemporary architecture, they approached the problem in a completely different spirit. Where Alberti, the Renaissance architect and theorist, wished to impose greater rationality on architecture, and on the disorder of the Medieval city, Hugo, the Romantic novelist, saw a need to remain true to the organic, homogeneous nature of the city of the Middle Ages. The two men were similar in their perception of the Medieval city as an example of uncontrolled growth. But they placed an entirely different value on this fact. Anthony Blunt's remark about Renaissance classicism sums up this difference: "in architecture the revival of Roman forms was used to create a style which answered to the demands of human reason rather than to the more.."
