Hoe kan dat en waarom gebeurt dat in Brabant?

La storia dell'editoria è la storia dell'emancipazione di un mestiere da un altro. Questo volume delinea tale parabola, ponendo in rilievo la relazione che intercorre fra libri e società, industria editoriale e storia nazionale. Ripercorrendo le vicende di alcune case editrici - fra cui Zanichelli, Treves, Bemporad, Hoepli, Laterza, Mondadori, Einaudi, Feltrinelli, Adelphi, Sellerio - e concentrando l'attenzione su alcune questioni trasversali alla loro attività, traccia un quadro non solo dell'editoria italiana, ma anche dell'Italia dei libri dall'età liberale a quella repubblicana.

¿Quién manda en España? ¿Por qué mandan los que ocupan puestos de poder en los ministerios, secretarías de Estado, direcciones generales? ¿Qué redes de intereses les unen entre sí? Más allá de las "puertas giratorias", unos grupos pequeños de altos funcionarios, personas vinculadas al poder real, sobre todo al económico, toman las decisiones y lo hacen sin responder ante los ciudadanos ni escucharles. Porque las élites de poder no se presentan a las elecciones ni defienden un programa electoral.

In Cataloging the World, Alex Wright introduces us to a figure who stands out in the long line of thinkers and idealists who devoted themselves to the task.
