Sono un centinaio, e quasi tutti sconosciuti. Eppure scrivono le leggi che regolano le nostre vite e decretano come applicarle. Sono al vertice dei ministeri, dove a volte contano più degli stessi ministri. Le loro sentenze possono cambiare i destini di interi settori dell'economia nazionale, invalidare i risultati di un concorso pubblico, far decadere un presidente di Regione, cancellare la nomina di un procuratore della Repubblica.

What does it now mean to call yourself European? Who makes up this population of 750 million, sprawled from Ireland to Ukraine, from Sweden to Turkey? Who has always called it home, and who has newly arrived from elsewhere? Who are the people who drive our long-distance lorries, steward our crisscrossing planes, lovingly craft our legacy wines, fish our depleted waters, and risk life itself in search of safety and a new start?

Nel 1861 si forma il Regno d'Italia: dopo molti secoli di frammentazione statale la penisola è così riunita in un'unica compagine, i cui territori vengono completati nei dieci anni seguenti. È un evento rivoluzionario, vissuto in questi termini dai contemporanei, in Italia e fuori d'Italia. In questo libro l'autore analizza il lungo processo di formazione del movimento nazionale, dai primi slanci patriottici di fine Settecento alle organizzazioni insurrezionali, ai tentativi rivoluzionari della prima metà dell'Ottocento fino all'anno cruciale del regno.

Max Czollek's De-Integrate! is a polemical, often humorous examination of Jewish life in contemporary Germany that speaks to the position of minorities the world over. Rooted in sociological theory, the book offers an engaging and approachable critique of Germany's much-lauded traditions of memory culture and Vergangenheitsbewältigung—its "successful" negotiation of its Nazi past.

Inzwischen ist Martin Sonneborn nicht mehr so naiv: Als er 2019 zum zweiten Mal ins Europaparlament gewählt wird, weiß er bereits, wie in der EU Politik gemacht wird – und kennt alle Tricks. Das ist auch gut so, denn in seiner zweiten Amtszeit geht es in Europa um alles. (Fast).

Der nächste Brandherd vor unserer Haustür? Vor über hundert Jahren entzündete sich auf dem westlichen Balkan der Erste Weltkrieg. Verantwortlich dafür waren die Großmächte, die ihr Ringen um Vormacht in der Region austrugen. Heute baut China dort Straßen, Russland spornt Nationalisten an, die Türkei und die Golfstaaten investieren in Moscheen und Hotels. Sie alle sehen darin einen Weg, Einfluss auf Europa zu nehmen.

Sinn Féin is the most popular political party in both Northern Ireland and the Republic. A movement once synonymous with a paramilitary campaign is on the brink of taking real power through purely democratic means. But if Sinn Féin has mastered the art of electoral politics, it remains strangely opaque. Who really runs the party? How is it funded? And what can we expect of it as a party of government? Aoife Moore, Irish Journalist of the Year in 2021, explores these and other burning questions in The Long Game.

Since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, Yaroslav Trofimov has spent months on end at the heart of the conflict, very often on its front lines. In this authoritative account, he traces the war’s decisive moments—from the battle for Kyiv to more recently the gruelling and bloody arm wrestle involving the Wagner group over Bakhmut—to show how Ukraine and its allies have turned the tide against Russia in a modern-day battle of David and Goliath.

Since Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine, some one million Russians have fled the country and gone into exile. Motivated by opposition to the war, by guilt for their country’s deeds, by personal hatred for the Czar-like Putin, and by a vision of a better Russia, shorn of autocracy, the exiles have mounted an organized resistance to Putin’s rule. Paul Starobin travels to meet with exiles and has conversations with prominent figures throughout Europe and America, as he takes measure of this rebellion—and its potential to fix a nation plagued by revanchist imperial dreams.

Was macht die Ukraine aus? Erst mit der russischen Annexion der Krim entwickelte sich ein Bewusstsein für die Eigenständigkeit dieses Landes, das nach dem Willen der Aggressoren nun von der Landkarte verschwinden soll. Seit vielen Jahren ist Karl Schlögel in der Ukraine unterwegs, seine ukrainischen Lektionen von 2015 ergänzt er nun um einen großen Essay über den Krieg, der sich gegen die Idee der Freiheitlichkeit überhaupt richtet.

Zerstört, geteilt, geeint, zwischen Taumel und Triumph: Die Geschichte Europas wie Timothy Garton Ash sie erlebt hat – als Historiker, Kommentator und Zeitzeuge. Timothy Garton Ash ist leidenschaftlicher Europäer. Schon vor 1989 wollte er sich nicht mit der Teilung des Kontinents abfinden, bis zuletzt kämpfte er gegen den Brexit. Nun schreibt er seine ganz persönliche Geschichte Europas, die 1945 mit der Stationierung seines Vaters als Besatzungssoldat in Deutschland beginnt.

THE INSIDE STORY OF THE MILIBAND AND CORBYN YEARS, AND HOW THEY LED TO THE LABOUR LEFT'S DEMISE. For 42 years, Chris Williamson was a Labour Party member. In 2010, he was elected to Parliament to represent his home town. However, in 2019, he was unceremoniously suspended from the party after being subjected to a smear campaign, and he later resigned in protest at the betrayal. In this forensic memoir - free of his Labourist clutches - Williamson provides a unique ringside view.

Across the West, racial injustice has become a matter of urgency. Terms like 'critical race theory' and 'intersectionality' are everywhere and, in the rush to get it right, Britain has followed the lead of the world's dominant political power: America. But what if we've been looking in the wrong place? In This is Not America, Tomiwa Owolade argues that too much of the debate around racism in Britain is viewed through the prism of American ideas that don't reflect the history, challenges and achievements of black communities at home.

From the critically acclaimed historian Victor Sebestyen, the enthralling  account of historical and cultural events that defined Budapest, a unique city on the fault line between East and West in the heart of Europe.

For centuries, British identity has been shaped by ideas of exceptionalism, grandeur and competence. Yet British democracy is failing. Governments supported by a minority of voters are elected with enormous majorities under a deeply unrepresentative first-past-the-post system. The result has been failed leaders delivering wounding blows to the country's economy, prosperity and international image. Britain Is Better Than This explores what lies beneath this sense of malaise, revealing the structural and constitutional failures at the heart of a sclerotic political system.

Não há governo que pare de pé quando o governante provoca uma grave crise econômica. Nos últimos dois anos, o Brasil passou por uma recessão severa, com um rombo inédito nas contas públicas. Depois de mais de vinte anos, a inflação voltou a visitar o patamar de dois dígitos. Em agosto de 2016, quando o Congresso afastou definitivamente a presidente Dilma Rousseff, o desemprego abatia mais de 12 milhões de brasileiros.
