Podcast: The Situation in Venezuela

The Interdisciplinary Research Group on Latin America has produced the first episode of the IPS Podcast. It deals with the situation in Venezuela.

For years, Venezuela has been in a political and economic downward spiral. How could the once rich country experience such a crash? What is the current situation? And what's next for a country that appears to be on the verge of collapse?

These are the questions Theresa Stawski and Thomas Kestler try to explore in their German-language conversation. Student Milada Enzenbach describes the precarious supply situation in Caracas from the perspective of someone affected.
