How Food Supply turned into a Politicized Manipulation System - the case of the Venezuelan crisis under president Maduro

Bachelor thesis | International Studies (BA)
After an era in which Hugo Chávez was the leader of one of the wealthiest countries of Latin America, a country that adored their president due to his charisma and background, Venezuela got itself into one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world. How is it possible that a country that was once so wealthy, envied by its neighbouring countries because of their stable democracy, now experiences hyperinflation, migration, and hunger? This thesis analyses the nutrition crisis in Venezuela through the concepts of crisis management and politicization.
