Als Lea Ypi im Internet ein ihr unbekanntes Foto entdeckt, das ihre Großeltern 1941 beim Après-Ski in den italienischen Alpen zeigt, fragt sie sich, was sie wirklich über ihre Familie weiß. Warum hat ihre geliebte Großmutter Leman, genannt Nini, Französisch gesprochen, wenn sie doch in Saloniki aufgewachsen war, als Enkelin eines Würdenträgers? Was hatte sie bewogen, als junge Frau Griechenland zu verlassen und auf eigene Faust nach Tirana zu gehen?

Michael Roth schreibt von den "Zonen der Angst" der Berufspolitik. Vom innerparteilichen Machtkampf. Den sozialen Medien und dem drohenden Shitstorm. Dem Pranger, weil man die Rituale und die Sprache der eigenen Bubble, Partei oder Peer-Group infrage stellt. Dem falschen politischen Spiel mit gesellschaftlichen Ängsten. Darunter hat der Mensch Michael Roth immer stärker gelitten - und seine eigene mentale Erkrankung erst spät erkannt. Mit seinem Buch möchte er anderen Mut machen, sich den eigenen Ängsten zu stellen. Dabei schont er weder seine politischen Weggefährten noch sich selbst.

Winston Churchill was no ordinary statesman. He was a man of action and contradiction, of resilience and recklessness, of soaring vision and stubborn conviction. Winston Churchill: A Legacy of Leadership by Jasmine Dyggan offers an unflinching yet reverent portrait of one of history’s most fascinating and polarising figures. Across ten meticulously researched chapters and a compelling final conclusion, this biography journeys through the personal and political evolution of Churchill’s extraordinary life—from his early military escapades to his twilight years as a national icon.

De niña, disimulaba mis deseos en textos de ficción. Dos hermanas en fuga. Perseguidas por un monstruo de dos cabezas. Huían por sombríos bosques. Se armaban con ramas, palos. Hoy ya no escondo mis deseos. Quisiera que este texto diezmara a mi familia toda.

When Hu Yaobang died in April 1989, throngs of mourners converged on the Martyrs' Monument in Tiananmen Square to pay their respects. Chinese propaganda officials had sought to tarnish his reputation and dim his memory, yet his death galvanized the nascent pro-democracy student movement, setting off the dramatic demonstrations that culminated in the Tiananmen massacre.

O enredo do volume 2 de Trapaça – Saga Política no Universo Paralelo Brasileiro começa horas antes do ponto em se encerra a história do volume 1. O diapasão temporal vai da madrugada do dia 1º de outubro de 1992, quando Itamar Franco assumiria a Presidência da República substituindo Fernando Collor, que passava a responder a um processo de impeachment, até a segunda-feira 26 de abril de 1999 quando o ex-presidente do Banco Central, Francisco Lopes, sai preso do Senado Federal.

Quando entrambi sono ancora membri del Partito Socialista, prima della Grande Guerra, Mussolini trova già nel futuro segretario un tenace oppositore, senza sapere che, in seguito, proprio lui, soprannominato "tempesta" dai compagni di partito, diventerà un ostacolo insormontabile per la sua sfrenata ambizione. Il loro antagonismo si rinnova un decennio dopo e culmina il 30 maggio 1924, nell'aula della Camera, dove Matteotti denuncia le violenze perpetrate dagli squadristi fascisti durante le ultime elezioni che hanno portato Mussolini alla guida di un governo di coalizione.

Tutto parte dall'Emilia e dalle lezioni politiche della madre, dalle partite di calcio al Campo Volo nella Reggio Emilia rossa degli anni Cinquanta. Romano Prodi si racconta per la prima volta in queste pagine scritte con Marco Ascione, giornalista del "Corriere della Sera": la vita intensa di un protagonista della nostra storia che ha sempre "interpretato a soggetto" da riformista, sì, ma a modo suo. Vicino alla Democrazia cristiana, ma non dentro.

Wer den Einfluss verstehen will, den China auf die deutsche Wirtschaft ausübt, muss den Namen Gerhard Ludwig Flatow kennen. Er war wohlhabender Stahldirektor und Kommunist, Abenteurer und Lobbyist, sprach fließend chinesisch und wurde in den Fünfziger und Sechziger Jahren zum wichtigsten Agenten der Chinesen in Deutschland. Dabei hat er es verstanden, völlig unbekannt zu bleiben–bis der Wirtschaftspublizist und Chinakenner Bernd Ziesemer die Fäden zusammenführte und entdeckte, dass ein Maoist und ein Industrieller ein und dieselbe Person waren.

Al verlo en el centro del Salón de Tesorería, un magno espacio construido para la realeza española del siglo XVI, me di cuenta de que no hablaba como presidente, político o siquiera líder social, sino como un pastor espiritual que se dirige a su grey. La primera vez que fui a la mañanera, vi a Andrés Manuel López Obrador de una manera distinta. No era aquel que conocí en 1995, en Villahermosa,platicando sobre el futuro del movimiento social que ya encabezaba. Tampoco era el hombre que tomaba pozos petroleros ni el candidato en permanente campaña.

Enesta magna obra ilustrada, el doctor Carlos Herrejón -tal vez el mayor especialista en Hidalgo- nos presenta la biografía más acuciosa que se haya hecho del guanajuatense. Mientras pinta cómo era la vida en la Nueva España, disecciona los años de formación y los de esplendor académico y clerical de Hidalgo, igual que los meses de guerra y prisión. Nos muestra, en fin, que el Padre de la Patria es un gran desconocido para sus hijos.

James Michael Curley was the stuff of legend. Twice jailed while serving in office, yet a champion of the people; builder of schools, yet a shameless grafter; born in the slums of South Boston, yet rising to become one of the most wealthy, powerful politicians of his day.

For tens of millions of Americans, Tucker Carlson was long the only voice on cable news providing a counternarrative to establishment Washington and the mainstream press on the most important issues of our time: the Covid-19 vaccine, January 6, the Ukraine war, and even UFOs, just to name a few.

Archibald James Carey Jr. (February 29, 1908-April 20, 1981) was an American lawyer, judge, politician, diplomat, and clergyman from the South Side of Chicago. He was elected as a city alderman and served for eight years. In 1957, he was appointed by President Dwight Eisenhower as chair of his committee on government employment policy, which worked to reduce racial discrimination.

He was the patriarch of the Irish-American Kennedy family, which included President John F. Kennedy, U.S. Attorney General and Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and longtime Senator Ted Kennedy.

Helen Shiller went from radical anti-war activist in Wisconsin, to a member of a collective of white allies of the Black Panther Party in Chicago, to an elected city council person who helped break the back of the racialized opposition to Harold Washington, Chicago's first Black mayor. Shiller participated, when few others did, in the historic fight against the gentrification of a unique economically and racially mixed Chicago community on the Northside.

Born in Cambridge, England, to an upper-middle-class family, John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) attended Eton College and King’s College, Cambridge, where he received a BA in mathematics in 1904. From an early age, he evinced an optimism about improving human life and believed in the power of government to change things for the better. During World War I, Keynes served in the Treasury, and his success in this role led to his appointment as a representative to the Versailles peace conference in 1919.

During one sweltering week in July 1948, the Democratic Party gathered in Philadelphia for its national convention. The most pressing and controversial issue facing the delegates was not whom to nominate for president—the incumbent, Harry Truman, was the presumptive candidate—but whether the Democrats would finally embrace the cause of civil rights and embed it in their official platform. On the convention's final day, Hubert Humphrey, the relatively obscure mayor of the midsized city of Minneapolis, ascended the podium.

Mary Beth Rogers has led an eventful life rooted in the weeds of Texas politics, occasionally savoring a few victories—particularly the 1990 governor's race when, as campaign manager for Ann Richards, she did the impossible and put a Democratic woman in office. She also learned to absorb her losses—after all, she was a liberal feminist in America's most aggressively conservative state. Rogers shares both public and private memories of how she tried to maintain a rich family life with growing children and a husband with a debilitating illness.

En medio de los diálogos de La Habana, Humberto de la Calle reunía sus notas de trabajo en rigurosos diarios, consciente de estar registrando en su misma fuente el curso de la historia. En los márgenes de estas notas, redactaba también sus impresiones y dudas, sus meditaciones, a veces miraba en perspectiva y reconstruía la evolución del proceso de paz o simplemente escribía sobre la cotidianidad de unos días difíciles, donde estaban en juego el cambio de todo un país y la vida de muchos.

The times have changed, and recent writers have once more relegated Calhoun to a dark corner of American history. In the first half of the 19th century, Calhoun was for 40 years one of the half dozen most important public men of America. Seldom victorious, he was always important and always listened to on many more national questions than slavery.

Martin T. Manton was a corrupt federal appeals court judge in New York who was convicted in 1939 and sent to prison. At the time, this was a hugely important story: Manton was considered the highest-ranking judge in the United States after the nine Justices of the Supreme Court, and was nearly appointed to that august body in 1922. Yet his story has never been told in book-length form before, and never with the benefit of such exhaustive research.
