En tiempos de inmediatez y ruido mediático, una obra que apela directamente a la ciudadanía. En los cuatro años transcurridos desde Manual de resistencia, Pedro Sánchez ha formado el primer Gobierno de coalición de la historia reciente de España, ha liderado el país durante una pandemia, una guerra en Ucrania y sus consecuencias económicas en toda Europa, y ha lidiado con otras muchas crisis, como la erupción de un volcán en La Palma. Pese a todas las dificultades, en esta pasada legislatura se han sentado las bases de grandes transformaciones, con el medio ambiente, la lucha contra la desigualdad y la transición digital como ejes principales.

Wright's long imperial career delicately balanced dual loyalties to Crown and colony and offers a new perspective on loyalism and the American Revolution. Through this lens, Greg Brooking connects several important contexts in recent early American and British scholarship, including imperial and Atlantic history, Indigenous borderlands, race and slavery, and popular politics.

Atatürk'ü en doğru ve en yalın biçimde herkese anlatabilecek tek kitap: Dersimiz: Atatürk. Tarih, savaşlarda düşmana galip gelen büyük komutanlarla dolu. Tarihte milletlerini daha ileriye götürmek için çalışan birçok önemli önder var. Ama hiçbiri Atatürk gibi anılmıyor, özlenmiyor. Tarih sayfalarında uyuyorlar. Çünkü aralarında Atatürk gibi hem vatanını düşmanlardan temizleyip yeni bir devlet kuran, hem milletini sömürüden, hurafelerden, ortaçağlılıktan kurtarıp çağdaş uygarlığa kavuşturan biri yok.

La prima è stata Margaret Thatcher. Eletta a capo del governo britannico nel 1979, guidò il paese per dieci anni, portandolo attraverso una crisi economica e una guerra contro l’Argentina, interpretando il suo ruolo con il piglio autoritario che le valse l’appellativo di “Lady di ferro”. Fu il primo tentativo di rompere quel “tetto di cristallo” che nei paesi occidentali sembrava imprigionare le velleità di leadership femminili, relegando le donne in politica a incarichi minori, o alla funzione ancillare di First Lady.

In America’s collective consciousness, Pat Nixon has long been perceived as enigmatic. She was voted “Most Admired Woman in the World” in 1972 and made Gallup Poll’s top ten list of most admired women fourteen times. She survived the turmoil of the Watergate scandal with her popularity and dignity intact. The real Pat Nixon, however, bore little resemblance to the woman so often described as elusive, mysterious and “plastic” in the press. Pat married Richard Nixon in June of 1940. As the couple rose to prominence, Pat became Second Lady from 1953-1961 and then First Lady from 1969-1974.

Erhard Jacobsen havde fik allerede øje på det i starten af 1970'ernet: Socialdemokratiet var splittet mellem at være et arbejderparti og et elitært, venstreorienteret parti. Efter lange overvejelser drog han i 1973 konsekvensen, brød med partiet og dannede Centrum-Demokraterne. Og hvilket brud! Den populære borgmester fra Gladsaxe havde ingen problemer med at skaffe de nødvendige underskrifter, og resultatet blev jordskredsvalget i 1973, hvor Erhards nye parti stormede ind i dansk politik.

Jakobsen opvoksede i et stærkt grundtvigiansk friskolelærerhjem, omringet af en stor, men tætknyttet søskendeflok, og det var netop disse betingelser, der var med til at skabe fundamentet for den kommende danske politiker.

Bruno Kreisky war zweifellos der prominenteste und einflussreichste Politiker im Österreich der Nachkriegsjahre. Etwa dreißig Jahre lang gestaltete er die Politik seines Landes und hob dessen Ansehen in der ganzen Welt, zuerst als Staatssekretär (1953-1958), dann als Außenminister (1959-1966) als Vorsitzender der damals in der Opposition befindlichen sozialdemokratischen Partei und schließlich als Bundeskanzler (1970 bis 1983). Während seiner langen Amtszeit erreichte Österreich einen bis dahin noch nie gekannten Wohlstand.

I would talk to the president before the chief of staff even saw the president in the morning. I walked into work, and I was already in the Oval Office talking to President Trump. It was rarely medical, to be honest with you; it was whatever was going on in the news. I’d be the first person he’d see in the morning. The president was completing tasks two to three hours before anybody else showed up in the West Wing to work. He’d get up at five o’clock in the morning and would be watching TV, tweeting, making phone calls, and doing all types of other tasks.

Have you ever wondered what a judge is really thinking? To most people, judges are mysterious creatures. Judge Mader shines a bright spotlight on the hidden folds of the judging world. The old saying is that judges merely "follow the law". Yet following the law can produce wildly different results depending upon each judge's background, politics, and life experiences. Even the floor of the courthouse to which a case is assigned can mean the difference between prison and freedom. Never before has the judging world been laid bare for all to see.

With a lack of formal education and scant financial resources, Cesar Chavez achieved what previous activists could not, negotiating contracts between unionized workers and corporate agribusiness concerns based on work strikes and retail bans against specific products.
