Isn't this really the core issue at the moment for the education law that Venezuela's parliament secretly passed? Yes, I know, there are other questions too, but admitting to mistakes is the meta-question that seems to constantly haunt policy and behaviour not just in Venezuela but the region at large.
Anyway Jeremy Morgan of the Latin American Herald Tribune has a lengthy but very worthwhile rundown published on Sunday of the most recent events surrounding this debate. I would excerpt some of it here, but frankly I would have to quote the entire thing, sort of like the uselessness of highlighting an entire chapter of a book. So, when you have a few minutes, seriously, go here and read.
By the way, to anyone from the LAHT reading this, may I impose upon you some user feedback: can you please start putting the publishing date somewhere on the actual article page? Thanks.
