coup d etat chavez

• Editorial - a Threat to Democracy

It was Mr. [Manuel Zelaya]'s emulation of Mr. [Hugo Chavez] that led to the coup against him. Just as the Venezuelan boss last year held a referendum to abolish term-limits on political office -- effectively giving him the opportunity to be president for life -- Mr. Zelaya was attempting to do the same thing in Honduras. The coup against him was carried out by the military, but it was backed by the Supreme Court and the Honduran congress. It was a stupid, illegal and counterproductive move, but it was hardly your conventional coup d'etat.

• Worlds Apart: Canadian and Brazilian Multilateralism in Comparative Perspective

Canadian policy makers have repeatedly emphasized improving relations with Brazil as a strategic objective in the Americas. Given past failures to cooperate, this objective may be difficult to realize. We argue that one of the reasons for this unrealized relationship between Canada and Brazil within hemispheric institutions is different national approaches to the role and purpose of multilateralism. This argument is advanced through an analysis of national interpretations of each country's engagement with multilateralism, drawing on the local literatures. The paper concludes with a discussion of the prospects and limits of future multilateral cooperation between the two countries, drawing on examples from the Inter-American System.
