This article develops some of the imagery that they have acted in the symbolic construction of Venezuelan democracy in the twentieth century. In particular it was discussed on the basis of the father figure of Rómulo Betancourt (1908-1981) who developed and prefigured in his socio-political understanding that has served as the original structuring of the Venezuelan political imagination.
