About the Book

Journalists Under Fire: Chronicles of Repression in Maduro's Venezuela (2024-2025) is a powerful and meticulously documented account of the escalating persecution faced by reporters, photographers, and independent media workers under Nicolás Maduro's authoritarian regime. Through firsthand testimonies, verified incidents, and on-the-ground reporting, this book exposes the systematic censorship, intimidation, arbitrary detentions, and violent repression used to silence the press during one of Venezuela's darkest periods.

This chronicle serves as both a historical record and a call to action. It highlights the courage of journalists who risk their freedom-and often their lives-to report the truth. For researchers, activists, policymakers, and readers concerned with human rights, freedom of expression, and Latin American politics, this book offers indispensable insight into how modern authoritarianism operates in real time.

A vital resource for understanding the global decline of press freedom, Journalists Under Fire stands as a tribute to those who continue to speak truth to power despite overwhelming danger.



About the Author :
Eladio Rodulfo González, who signs his prose and verse works with both surnames, was born in the hamlet of Marabal, later converted into a parish of the same name in the Mariño Municipality, Sucre State, Venezuela, to Guzmán Rodulfo and Nicomedes González. The latter died when he was a young child, and he never saw her even in a portrait. He was raised by his father's second wife, Martina Salazar. He was born on February 18, 1935. He holds a degree in Journalism from the Central University of Venezuela, is a social worker, poet, and cultural researcher. With his wife, Briceida Moya, he fathered Gabriela Lucila, Juan Ramón, Gustavo Adolfo, and Katiuska Alfonsina, named after the poets Gabriela Mistral, Juan Ramón Jiménez, Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, and Alfonsina Storni. In his early years, he worked as a clerk in the warehouse of his father, an oil worker for the Creole Petroleum Corporation in Lagunillas, Zulia State, where he began his high school studies at the Colegio Santa Rosa de Lima, which he continued at the Alcázar and Juan Vicente González high schools and the National School of Social Work, both located in Caracas. He was also co-founder of the Juvenile Division of the now-defunct Technical Corps of the Judicial Police and the Nueva Esparta Section of the National College of Journalists, where he served on the boards of directors of several secretariats and also chaired the Journalist Social Security Institute. He earned a bachelor's degree in journalism from the now-defunct School of Journalism of the Central University of Venezuela, later transformed into the School of Social Communication, on October 9, 1969. He later completed postgraduate studies in Public Administration, specializing in Organization and Methods, and a course in Cultural Research. He also took police courses in Washington, D.C., and Fort Bragg, North Carolina.
