¿Quién manda en España? ¿Por qué mandan los que ocupan puestos de poder en los ministerios, secretarías de Estado, direcciones generales? ¿Qué redes de intereses les unen entre sí? Más allá de las "puertas giratorias", unos grupos pequeños de altos funcionarios, personas vinculadas al poder real, sobre todo al económico, toman las decisiones y lo hacen sin responder ante los ciudadanos ni escucharles. Porque las élites de poder no se presentan a las elecciones ni defienden un programa electoral.

An den europäischen Außengrenzen werden vielfach Menschenrechte gebrochen. Geflüchtete werden ohne Zugang zu Asylverfahren zurückgewiesen, eingesperrt, auf dem Meer ausgesetzt und misshandelt. Erik Marquardt sitzt für die Grünen im EU-Parlament und war in den letzten Jahren immer wieder auf der Balkanroute, auf Lesbos und bei der Seenotrettung auf dem Mittelmeer. In seinem Buch macht er die Diskrepanz zwischen dem europäischen Bekenntnis zu Menschenrechten und -würde und der Wirklichkeit vor Ort deutlich.

"L'Europa è in pericolo. Il programma comune delle forze populiste che stanno dilagando in tutto il continente vuole interrompere ogni progetto di costruzione, ritrovare una cosiddetta "anima delle nazioni", rilanciare "un'identità perduta" che non esiste se non nella fantasia dei demagoghi. La mia scommessa è sull'Europa, la mia fede è in questa grande Idea di cui i nostri padri ci hanno trasmesso l'eredità, la convinzione che lei sola avrà la forza, domani, di scongiurare il ritorno dei demoni, quello dei totalitarismi e quello di conseguenza della crisi e della miseria."

Il 1° gennaio 1958 nasce la Comunità economica europea, primo fondamentale passo verso l'Europa unita. Già nei primi anni '60 gli scambi commerciali fra paesi comunitari aumentano del 30% e nel periodo 1958-1970 raddoppiano percentualmente rispetto a quelli del commercio mondiale nel suo complesso. Le misure di liberalizzazione via via adottate hanno portato a una consistente espansione del commercio intracomunitario, che è giunto a toccare circa il 60% di tutti gli scambi della Comunità.

Come arginare l'ondata populista che rischia di spazzare via le nostre democrazie? Come prevenire la deflagrazione dell'Unione Europea? Per porre termine alle politiche economiche penalizzanti, mettere all'angolo l'austerità e contrastare le diseguaglianze, è urgente democratizzare il governo dell'eurozona. Redatto da una squadra di giuristi, politologi ed economisti, il progetto del trattato, qui presentato e commentato, propone l'istituzione di un'assemblea parlamentare per tutelare e promuovere la giustizia sociale e fiscale.

The headlines may be all COVID now; as a few short months ago, they were all Brexit, but breakdown of the UK's political sphere has been a long time coming and it is a symptom of a much deeper malaise. We seem to have lost our faith in all our social institutions, from parliament and the press to banking and religion. It is this wider disillusionment that All in It Together, a cultural, political and social history of Britain from 2000 to 2015, explains.

From a warehouse in Manchester to a pub in Essex, from the outskirts of Glasgow to a racecourse in Durham, Jack Shenker uncovers the root causes of our current crisis and the future direction of British politics through the lives of ordinary individuals. Taking us deep into communities hollowed out by austerity and decades of economic disadvantage, among a generation crippled by precarious work and unaffordable housing, he shows where the chaos at Westminster ultimately springs from....

Life at the Heart of Power is a very personal portrait of life as a woman at the centre of power. As Brexit discussions rail on, Fall offers an intimate account of the preceding seminal political years from the viewpoint of the ‘staffer’ rather than the more traditional memoirs of the ‘principals’- David Cameron and George Osborne whom she worked alongside. Fall takes us through 11 years of the Cameron project. From its inception and battle to win the soul of the Conservative party, through to life at No 10 during the coalition years.

Every day, President Obama received 10,000 letters from ordinary American citizens. Every night, he read 10 of them before going to bed. This is the story of how they shaped his presidency. Together they reveal the diary of a nation. They wrote to Obama out of gratitude and desperation, in their darkest times of need, with anger, fear and respect. To Obama is an intimate look at one man's relationship with the American people, and at a time when empathy intersected with politics in the White House.

The madcap true story of how Rachel Johnson—born into one of Britain's most famous political families and known since childhood as "Rake"—tries and fails to get elected in the 2019 hard-fought effort to stop Brexit, running against her older brother, Boris, and what she learns in the...

In The Dark Side of France, Enda O'Doherty brings to life the long history of extreme nationalist, antisemitic and authoritarian politics and ideas in France.

A compelling and disturbing narrative history, O'Doherty's book is a journey through the dark side of the republic.

Deutschland ist seit über 35 Jahren wiedervereint, doch die Mauern in den Köpfen sind längst nicht abgebaut. Die Kluft zwischen Ost und West scheint größer denn je. Die Stärke der AfD–vor allem bei der jungen Wählerschaft–ist Beleg für eine große Polarisierung. Genau diese Themen greift Nora Zabel in ihrem gesellschaftskritischen Sachbuch auf. Mitte der 1990er Jahre in der mecklenburgischen Provinz geboren, verlor sie niemals die Hoffnung auf eine gleichberechtigte Gesellschaft und engagierte sich schon in ihrer Schulzeit politisch.

Brexit (/ˈbrɛksɪt, ˈbrɛɡzɪt/;[1] a portmanteau of "British" and "exit") is the withdrawal of the United Kingdom (UK) from the European Union (EU). Following a June 2016 referendum, in which 51.9% voted to leave, the UK government formally announced the country's withdrawal in March 2017, starting a process that is currently due to conclude with the UK withdrawing no later than 31 January 2020.

Яркая, полемичная, жесткая работа Ильина, впервые опубликованная в Берлине в 1925г., когда впечатления Гражданской войны и воспоминания об ужасах "красного террора" были у русской эмиграции еще болезненно свежи. В этом посвященном «белым воинам, носителям православного меча» труде властитель дум право-консервативного крыла Русского зарубежья решительно осуждает "непротивленческую" теорию Льва Толстого с ее "сентиментальным морализмом", проводит разграничение между собственно насилием как бессмысленным и жестоким угнетением и "заставлением" - т.е. осознанным и морально оправданным пресечением некоей вредной и опасной деятельности.

Stabil, selbstsicher, wohlhabend. Langweilig, aber meist Klassenbester. Lange blickten unsere europäischen Nachbarn neidisch, aber voll Respekt auf Deutschland. Doch die Dominanz in der EU ist erschüttert. Putins Ukraine-Krieg hat Deutschlands Schwächen offengelegt: Wirtschaftlich anfällig, strategisch naiv und längst nicht so modern, wie wir denken.
