Story
Adair Turner became chairman of Britain's Financial Services Authority just as the global financial crisis struck in 2008, and he played a leading role in redesigning global financial regulation. In this eye-opening book, he sets the record straight about what really caused the crisis. It didn’t happen because banks are too big to fail—our addiction to private debt is to blame. Between Debt and the Devil challenges the belief that we need credit growth to fuel economic growth, and that rising debt is okay as long as inflation remains low.

Story
Secondo studi recenti la Russia ha la quota più alta al mondo di dark money, soldi opachi detenuti all’estero: un trilione di dollari. Si stima che un quarto di questi sia collegato a Vladimir Putin e a suoi stretti associati, e il Cremlino sembra sempre più capace di pilotare operazioni aggressive. L'Italia è uno dei pezzi di questo grande gioco: gli oligarchi russi in Italia investono e comprano grandi proprietà. Agiscono portando avanti attività che sono a volte al confine con lo spionaggio.

Immaginate un paese in cui si ripete costantemente "che c'entriamo noi col fascismo?" e "ma poi, anche se fosse, tanto non era una dittatura, anzi ha fatto pure qualche cosa di buono". Immaginate un paese dove il crollo del fascismo viene chiamato anche 'morte della patria', dove la Resistenza diventa un'eredità scomoda da nascondere quanto prima nella soffitta della memoria. Ecco, ora immaginate di mettere alla prova dei fatti queste parole che sono diventate quasi senso comune.
