The best bibliographical guide is John Lombardi et al., Venezuelan History: A Comprehensive Working Bibliography (Boston, 1977). Since 1970, the Biblioteca Nacional has irregularly issued the series Bibliografía venezolana and Anuario bibliográfico venezolano. For historiography, see Germán Carrera Damas, Historia de la historiografía venezolana: Textos para su estudio (Caracas, 1961), Cuestiones de historiografia venezolana (Caracas, 1964) and Historiografía marxista venezolana y otros temas (Caracas, 1967). A useful chronological guide is A. Arellano Moreno, Guía de historia de Venezuela, 3rd ed. (Caracas, 1977). The Diccionario de historia de Venezuela, 3 vols. (Caracas, 1990), edited by Manuel Perez Vila and published by the Fundacion Polar, is invaluable.
Several collections of printed source material have appeared. The most impressive general series is Ramón J. Velásquez, El pensamiento político venezolano del siglo XX: Documentospara su estudio, 15 vols. to date (Caracas, 1983–). See also Naudy Suárez Figureroa’s Programaspoliticos venezolanos de la primera mitad del siglo XX, 2 vols. (Caracas, 1977)- Allan R. Brewer-Carías, Las constituciones de Venezuela (Madrid, 1985), discusses and reproduces the texts of all constitutions. José Augustín Catalá has edited and reprinted documents relating to the dictatorship of Pérez Jiménez and the clandestine resistance of the Acción Democrática (AD) – frequently taken from the 1960s trials of perezjimenistas. See Libro negro 1952 (Caracas, 1974); Documentos para la historia de la resistencia, 4 vols. (Caracas, 1969); Los crímenes de Pérez Jiménez (various subtitles and volumes, Caracas, 1971); and Los jerarcas impunes del perezjimenismo (various subtitles and volumes, Caracas, 1971).
