Part I. U.S.-Venezuela relations and IR theory -- Part II.

Regime type and other domestic sources of foreign policy: regime type and Venezuela: president and soldiers; regime type and US policy toward Venezuela: president and Congress -- Part V. Overreaching and outreaching: from ALBA to Damascus: tiny allies, big pariahs and identity construction; conclusion: friends-enemies, for now.
