520    This book is published open access under a CC BY 4.0 
       license. This book presents an ethnographic study of how 
       grassroots activism in Venezuela during the Chávez 
       presidency can be understood in relation to the country's 
       history as a petro-state. Taking the contested 
       relationship between the popular sectors and the 
       Venezuelan state as a point of departure, Iselin Åsedotter
       Strønen explores how notions such as class, race, state, 
       bureaucracy, popular politics, capitalism, neoliberalism, 
       consumption, oil wealth, and corruption gained salience in
       the Bolivarian process. A central argument is that the 
       Bolivarian process was an attempt to challenge the 
       practices, ideas, and values inherited from Venezuela's 
       historical development as an oil-producing state. Drawing 
       on rich ethnographic material from Caracas' shantytowns, 
       state institutions, as well as everyday life and public 
       culture, Strønen explores the complexities and challenges 
       in fostering deep social and political change.
