More Description
A masterful chronicle of unchecked ambition, diabolical shrewdness, the merciless use of power, and slapstick foolishness, this book examines the rise of Italian real estate and media magnate Silvio Berlusconi to Italy’s highest political office. In detailing Berlusconi’s various abuses of power and the scandals surrounding him, the author also points an accusatory finger at the political culture that facilitated his ascent. Rather than depicting the prime minister as a uniquely Italian phenomenon, however, he describes an international political climate more than capable of fostering other leaders in the same mold.
Una magistral crónica de la ambición desmedida, la astucia diabólica, el mando inmisericorde y la necedad bufonesca, este libro examina el ascenso de Silvio Berlusconi, el magnate italiano de bienes raíces y de los medios, al puesto político más importante de Italia. Mientras describe los abusos de poder y escándalos que caracterizaron el mandato de Berlusconi, el autor también hace responsable a la cultura política que facilitó su subida. En vez de presentar al primer ministro como un fenómeno particularmente italiano, sin embargo, describe un entorno político internacional sumamente capaz de producir otros líderes del mismo patrón.
