In its attempt to pursue an elusive Modernist vision of development, the Chávez government (1999-2013) inVenezuela concocted a fresh and very binary roster of ''us'' versus ''them.'' In its counter-hegemonicproject, in Gramscian terms, Venezuela has promoted a subaltern Orientalism that has featured thedemonization of the United States and its closest allies, and a rather abrupt bonding with countries andassociated cultures with which it had little previous contact, as exemplified by the cases of China, Iran andRussia. Edward Said (1978) defined Orientalism as a concept with reference to imperialist powers vis-à-visdeveloping countries. However, in the case at hand, one observes a refreshing twist: here one observesOrientalism on the part of developing and non-Western nations in relation to a counterhegemonic strugglevis-à-vis dominant Western countries, or what I term Sub-altern Orientalism. The article shall address thisincipient phase of identity construction in Venezuela regarding the Chinese, Arab, and to a lesser extent,Russian presence.
