Title: Soli al comando
Description: Mitterrand, Kennedy, De Gaulle, Churchill, Roosevelt, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Reagan, Thatcher, Erdogan are just some of the figures taken into consideration by Bruno Vespa in his latest work "Soli al comando". The power and conviction of being able to manage it alone is the focus of this new work of the journalist and TV presenter. Forgotten figures, known names, past personalities and leaders of the present are all observed by Vespa for their way of conceiving the charism and for their tendency to manage the government in solitary. A rundown of names, stories and events that begins with the early twentieth century and comes up to the present day. Inevitably, therefore, a look at the protagonists of current politics, such as Renzi, Grillo and Berlusconi. The relationship with power becomes in "Soli in command" a new and original opportunity to trace a path capable of linking eras, countries, situations, strongly different dynamics between them.
