Speech given by *Marta Harnecker* on August 15, 2014, accepting the 2013 Liberator's Prize for Critical Thought, awarded for her book, /A World to Build: New Paths//towards Twenty-first Century Socialism/; translated by *Federico Fuentes*

August 24, 2014 -- /Links International Journal of Socialist Renewal/ -- I completed this book one month after the physical disappearance of President Hugo Chávez, without whose intervention in Latin America this book could not have been written. Many of the ideas I raise in it are related in one way or another to the Bolivarian leader, to his ideas and actions, within Venezuela and at the regional and global level. Nobody can deny that there is a huge difference between the Latin America that Chávez inherited and the Latin America he has left for us today.

That is why I dedicated the book to him with the following words:

   /To Commandante Chavez, whose words, orientations and exemplary
   dedication to the cause of the poor will serve as a compass for his
   people and all the people of the world. It will be the best shield
   to defend ourselves from those that seek to destroy this marvellous
   work that he began to build/.
