Arabia Saudí es uno de los principales centros políticos, religiosos y económicos de Oriente Medio. Desde 1932, el país ha estado bajo el control de la Casa de Saúd, que intenta trasladar su imagen de liderazgo a toda la region. Sin embargo, las profundas transformaciones que estan ocurriendo en la zona desde la Primavera Çrabe de 2011 constituyen notables impedimentos para el desarrollo pleno de la politica internacional saudi. El rey Salman y el principe Mohamed bin Salman estan introduciendo importantes cambios en el ambito interno y exterior del reino, centrados en consolidar su posicion hegemonica frente a Iran y otras potencias del entorno. Analizar la evolucion historica del Estado wahabi sirve para comprender mejor los grandes acontecimientos que han marcado el devenir del mundo arabe y musulman en las ultimas decadas. La corona saudi tiene que hacer frente a un complejo panorama domestico y regional, en la que cada una de las acciones que emprendan determinara en gran medida la pervivencia del regimen y la fuerza del reino en el escenario mundial.

BOB WOODWARDS NEW BOOK, RAGE, IS AN UNPRECEDENTED AND INTIMATE TOUR DE FORCE OF NEW REPORTING ON THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY FACING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC, ECONOMIC DISASTER AND RACIAL UNREST.Woodward, the No 1 international bestselling author of Fear: Trump in the White House, has uncovered the precise moment the president was warned that the Covid-19 epidemic would be the biggest national security threat to his presidency. In dramatic detail, Woodward takes readers into the Oval Office as Trumps head pops up when he is told in January 2020 that the pandemic could reach the scale of the 1918 Spanish Flu that killed 675,000 Americans.In 17 on-the-record interviews with Woodward over seven volatile months - an utterly vivid window into Trumps mind - the president provides a self-portrait that is part denial and part combative interchange mixed with surprising moments of doubt as he glimpses the perils in the presidency and what he calls the ''''dynamite behind every door''''. At key decision points, Rage shows how Trumps responses to the crises of 2020 were rooted in the instincts, habits and style he developed during his first three years as president.Revisiting the earliest days of the Trump presidency, Rage reveals how Secretary of Defense James Mattis, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats struggled to keep the country safe as the president dismantled any semblance of collegial national security decision making. Rage draws from hundreds of hours of interviews with first-hand witnesses as well as participants notes, emails, diaries, calendars and confidential documents.Woodward obtained 25 never-seen personal letters exchanged between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, who describes the bond between the two leaders as out of a ''''fantasy film''''. Trump insists to Woodward he will triumph over Covid-19 and the economic calamity. ''''Dont worry about it, Bob. Okay?'''' Trump told the author in July. ''''Dont worry about it. Well get to do another book. Youll find I was right.''''

A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making—from the president who inspired us to believe in the power of democracy

An examination of a world increasingly defined by disorder and a United States unable to shape the world in its image, from the president of the Council on Foreign RelationsThings fall apart; the center cannot hold. The rules, policies, and institutions that have guided the world since World War II have largely run their course. Respect for sovereignty alone cannot uphold order in an age defined by global challenges from terrorism and the spread of nuclear weapons to climate change and cyberspace. Meanwhile, great power rivalry is returning. Weak states pose problems just as confounding as strong ones. The United States remains the worlds strongest country, but American foreign policy has at times made matters worse, both by what the U.S. has done and by what it has failed to do. The Middle East is in chaos, Asia is threatened by Chinas rise and a reckless North Korea, and Europe, for decades the worlds most stable region, is now anything but. As Richard Haass explains, the election of Donald Trump and the unexpected vote for Brexit signals that many in modern democracies reject important aspects of globalization, including borders open to trade and immigrants.In A World in Disarray, Haass argues for an updated global operating systemcall it world order 2.0that reflects the reality that power is widely distributed and that borders count for less. One critical element of this adjustment will be adopting a new approach to sovereignty, one that embraces its obligations and responsibilities as well as its rights and protections. Haass also details how the U.S. should act towards China and Russia, as well as in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. He suggests, too, what the country should do to address its dysfunctional politics, mounting debt, and the lack of agreement on the nature of its relationship with the world. A World in Disarray is a wise examination, one rich in history, of the current world, along with how we got here and what needs doing. Haass shows that the world cannot have stability or prosperity without the United States, but that the United States cannot be a force for global stability and prosperity without its politicians and citizens reaching a new understanding.

A compelling and masterful account, based on fresh reporting, of the investigation, impeachment, and acquittal of President Donald Trump, a ferocious political drama that challenged American democrac

El presente libro, de manera muy modesta, ha querido revisitar la historia reciente de la Argentina para comprender los meandros de sus últimos cuarenta años de política exterior. Este volumen sobre politica exterior argentina posee varios meritos visibles. El primero de ellos es que esta escrito por estudiosos a ambas orillas del Atlantico. El segundo de ellos es que constituye un buen ejemplo de produccion bibliografica a la que han aportado practitioners de la diplomacia argentina e investigadores academicos especializados en los temas abordados. El tercero es que se encuentra redactado de manera tal que resulta accesible tanto para publico experto como para lectores neofitos.El famoso tango Volver compuesto por los eximios artistas Carlos Gardel y Alfredo Le Pera ha sido versionado infinidad de veces porque, en su letra sencilla, delata certezas humanas casi siempre olvidadas: la rapidez de la marcha de la historia, la marca que el pasado deja en el presente y la finitud de los proyectos personales. Este libro, de manera muy modesta, ha querido revisar la historia reciente de la Argentina para comprender los meandros de sus ultimos cuarenta años de politica exterior. El lector agudo encontrara que las certezas gardelianas y leperianas aplican (y explican), sorpresivamente, tambien al foco de estudio que nos traemos entre manos en nuestro humilde volumen.

Este libro tiene como objetivo señalar las reacciones institucionales y de los actores ante la pandemia de la COVID-19 en los países de America Latina, a sabiendas de que su impacto será de una relevancia semejante a la que desencadeno el crash de 1929, el fin de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la crisis del petroleo de 1973 o la de la deuda de 1982. Es en este sentido que puede afirmarse que en 2020 se esta creando una coyuntura critica en tanto que genera una situacion de incertidumbre en la que las decisiones de los actores politicos, sociales y economicos mas relevantes de cada pais son cruciales y decisivas para el desarrollo politico e institucional a medio y largo plazo. De estas coyunturas suelen aparecer determinadas decisiones economicas, diferentes reagrupamientos sociales, nuevas coaliciones politicas y batallas de ideas que tienen posteriormente un impacto en el desarrollo de politicas e instituciones y, por ende, en la vida de las personas.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER "A thorough and damning exploration of the incestuous relationship between Trump and his favorite channel." --The New York Times "A Rosetta Stone for stuff about this presidency that doesn't otherwise make sense to normal humans." --Rachel Maddow, MSNBC "Stelter's critique goes beyond salacious tidbits about extramarital affairs (though there are plenty of those) to expose a collusion that threatens the pillars of our democracy." --The Washington Post The urgent and untold story of the collusion between Fox News and Donald Trump from the New York Times bestselling author of Top of the Morning. While other leaders were marshaling resources to combat the greatest pandemic in modern history, President Donald Trump was watching TV. Trump watches over six hours of Fox News a day, a habit his staff refers to as "executive time." In January 2020, when Fox News began to downplay COVID-19, the President was quick to agree. In March, as the deadly virus spiraled out of control, Sean Hannity mocked "coronavirus hysteria" as a "new hoax" from the left. Millions of Americans took Hannity and Trump's words as truth--until some of them started to get sick. In Hoax, CNN anchor and chief media correspondent Brian Stelter tells the twisted story of the relationship between Donald Trump and Fox News. From the moment Trump glided down the golden escalator to announce his candidacy in the 2016 presidential election to his acquittal on two articles of impeachment in early 2020, Fox hosts spread his lies and smeared his enemies. Over the course of two years, Stelter spoke with over 250 current and former Fox insiders in an effort to understand the inner workings of Rupert Murdoch's multibillion-dollar media empire. Some of the confessions are alarming. "We don't really believe all this stuff," a producer says. "We just tell other people to believe it." At the center of the story lies Sean Hannity, a college dropout who, following the death of Fox News mastermind Roger Ailes, reigns supreme at the network that pays him $30 million a year. Stelter describes the raging tensions inside Fox between the Trump loyalists and the few remaining journalists. He reveals why former chief news anchor Shep Smith resigned in disgust in 2019; why a former anchor said "if I stay here I'll get cancer;" and how Trump has exploited the leadership vacuum at the top to effectively seize control of the network. Including never before reported details, Hoax exposes the media personalities who, though morally bankrupt, profit outrageously by promoting the President's propaganda and radicalizing the American right. It is a book for anyone who reads the news and wonders: How did this happen?
