Vendere un'idea. Il consenso e la politica nell'era Renzi (9788831723183)

"Compagni e amici, sulla comunicazione come siamo messi? Quale lavoro state facendo su voi stessi? Come prepariamo le comparsate tv?". Così Matteo Renzi apostrofava gli esponenti del Partito democratico durante una direzione del 7 giugno 2015. Per il premier-segretario la comunicazione è da sempre al cuore della strategia politica. Ma come si costruisce e come si mantiene appetibile il "brand" Matteo? Quanto di quello che vediamo è vero? La giornalista del "Fatto Quotidiano" Wanda Marra, cronista politica, mostra in questo libro come funziona il vortice che, giorno per giorno, agitando passioni, aspettative e speranze collettive, porta alla costruzione del consenso intorno a un leader. Un "prodotto" frutto di moltissime discipline al lavoro simultaneamente: pubblicità, spin, comunicazione, moda, psicologia, sceneggiatura, marketing, storytelling, fotografia, giornalismo. Avvalendosi di più fonti, il libro si muove su livelli diversi: dai risvolti

Black Judges on Justice : Perspectives from the Bench (1565841042)

A presentation of the views of leading African American jurists on the way the American judicial system works. The judges have been chosen from all over the country, from federal as well as the local and state benches, and from the trial and appeal court levels. Washington interviews liberals and conservatives, men and women, some new to the bench and others who have served for decades. From these interviews emerges a range of portraits, and with it, outspoken views and insights on justice and racial prejudice in America. The justices are in many cases known for their innovative approaches to sentencing, for their attempts to deal with the everyday iniquities of American life, or for their courage in freeing suspects whom they feel have been illegally arrested or mistreated by the police. From pioneers such as Leon Higginbotham and Contance Baker Motley (the first black female federal judge) to such outspoken and well-known mavericks as Bruce Wright of New York City, the testimony of t
