From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Boliburguesía (English: Bolibourgeoisie, from the union of words Bolivarian and Bourgeoisie) was a term coined by Domingo Alberto Rangel, in his column “Correo del Caroní”, on April 20, 2006, decribing the new bourgeois created by the Venezuelan government of Hugo Chavez and in the Chavismo. The term has gained wide use within the critics of the Bolivarian Revolution.
The Bolibourgeoise has been criticized for their eccentricities, buying luxury hummers in a socialist intended revolution. The scandal known as the Maletinazo also generated criticism, the government of Hugo Chavez was apparently sending state oil money from PDVSA to finance the political campaign of now president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.
