U.S. Foreign Policy – Venezuela The foreign policy of the Trump administration is struggling to deal with the ongoing crisis in Venezuela. This country should be a prosperous and economic powerhouse; it has the largest known oil reserves in the world. Unfortunately, Venezuela is in the midst of a horrific economic collapse precipitated by the policies of President Nicolás Maduro and his predecessor, Hugo Chávez. The International Monetary Fund projects Venezuela’s rate of inflation will exceed 2,300 percent in 2018. Chavez and Maduro instituted disastrous economic policies that have left many in the country in near starvation. As a result, hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans have fled to neighboring countries. The U.S. recently placed sanctions on individual Venezuelan officials, with the potential of adding more sanctions if needed. But unless the situation changes in Venezuela, the U.S. may need to prepare for a full-blown revolution.  (Links to an external site.)

Instructions In this discussion, students will demonstrate an understanding of the purposes and practices of community-based corrections and intermediate sanctions. Consider the Module 4 readings. In your own words, define the terms “community-based corrections” and “intermediate sanctions,” providing examples to support your definitions. Considering the module readings on legislation and future trends related to intermediate sanctions and community corrections, make one prediction about the future of community corrections or intermediate sanctions as correctional strategies in the United States.
