In this timely lecture, Dr James Mestaz (Department of History and Politics) explores the historical relationship between imperial power, oil, and U.S. intervention in Venezuela. The talk examines how decades of energy interests, strategic concerns, and domestic political pressures created an entangled history that still shapes relations between the two countries today.
