About This Book
In a return to the historical sources of what is Venezuelan, passing over the promontory of the emancipation and the fratricidal war for Independence, shelling out its fights and its virtues until linking with the contemporaneity of the current global, the author, professor Asdrúbal Aguiar, in his dense study for the Academy of Merida and upon joining as Honorary Member, proposes to his compatriots the task of rebuilding the nation. Without a nation there is no republic possible, he affirms. Asdrubal Aguiar expects from Venezuela to rediscover its roots, with those that form its ethos made conscience, incarnated, and to verify those that managed to affirm themselves and to be affirmed or remain latent over their current dissolution. Subjected to the opprobrium of a primitive regime while its people have become a diaspora around the world, he considers, in his essay - The conscience of a nation, Reconstruction of Venezuelan roots - that it is urgent to revert the anthropological damage to which it has been exposed and suffered as a people. This is a clear and lucid response to the same challenge posed by the Venezuelan Episcopal Conference.
