Women and revolution in Venezuela: Street struggles of a woman
Venezuela is a woman's name like the beautiful women who are there in that country. There are two hypotheses on the origin of this term. The first from the copyright to the Florentine navigator Amerigo Vespuccio, first cartographer of the Americas and from whom takes its name all over the continent. It tells the legend that arrived in the waters of Lake Maracaibo, the use of the term when comparing that place with Venice. After seeing that the original inhabitants of the lake, the Indians Wayuù, Yukpa and Añù, lived on the palaphite in Venice. But the grammatical and language truth is that Venezuela in Castilian is a worse and not a diminutive. How does the legend explain that the meaning of "little Venice", even if it is the most felt and popular is also the most doubtful.
The other version speaks of a female word in the language "caribe", the language of the Indians of the macro-family arawak-caribe and the indigenous Caribe ethnic group of the central coasts of Venezuela. This word is Vernisuela and had a double meaning osia "great water" or "goddess of life". Which of the two is real, we do not know, but what interests us is that Venezuela is not and should not be called "Venezuela". But simply "Venezuela" to be a woman.
The role of women in the Venezuelan conflict since the beginning of the Chavista revolution.
Since that time of the late 1400s, Venezuela began a cross of races almost unique in the world that lees become famous in the last century among other things for the beauty of its women and the famous Miss Venezuela. I do not know and I do not believe that Venezuela has the most beautiful women in the world. But of one thing I'm sure, the role of women in Venezuelan society is total and the center of all attention. So that the family like Venezuelan society are totally matriacle. Despite this and the presence of women in every sector, until 1998 there was a great vacuum of femininity in national politics.
It was the Chavist revolution with its filomarxist and cultural Marxist that reforms to start an era in the politics of females. Beginning with the feminist socialist movements to the first protests. All held in the year 2000 by groups of mothers in defense of their children and against reforms of educational programs. These made them become abduction programs. Today, there are a lot of women who appear on the covers and the pages of the international press when it comes to Venezuela, women who range from militiamen and militant "chaviste-socialist" of the dictatorial regime, the most iconic of the political oposition, the Italovenezuelana Lilian Tintori and Maria Corina Machado, to women who every day, at every parade, at every protest in the world
