Barranquilla Plan
The Barranquilla Plan was a document and political analysis signed on March 22, 1931, in the Colombian city of Barranquilla by political exiles from the Venezuelan dictatorship of Juan Vicente Gómez. The plan criticized Gómez's regime, gomecismo, transnational corporations, as well as caudillismo, latifundismo (large land estates), and capitalism. The document is regarded as the "program-manifesto" of the Agrupación Revolucionaria de Izquierda, ARDI, the precursor to the political party Democratic Action. ARDI was founded by the signatories shortly after the plan's publication in the same city.
