This chapter traces the development of the Venezuelan political culture of caudillismo and the tendency towards perpetuation in office (continuismo). With the virtual collapse of the economy under Nicolas Maduro, maintaining the loyal of the military has meant making use of every source of funding, legal and illegal. Any return to pluralist democratic politics will have to deal with a military and paramilitary accustomed to illegal kickbacks.
