Este nuevo libro de Pío Moa expone con rigor historiográfico y agilidad periodística la apasionante evolución de un partido, cambiante como también lo ha sido, a veces traumáticamente, la historia del país en los ciento cuarenta años largos de existencia del PSOE. Salvo en la etapa franquista, el PSOE es el partido que más ha influido en la historia de España desde 1917 hasta la actualidad, y de modo determinante en dos periodos cruciales: la II República y la democracia actual desde su triunfal acceso al poder en 1982.

Éxodo y poder es la jugosa crónica de la historia de medio siglo de vida del Partido Popular y, por tanto, de muchos momentos decisivos de la política española en las últimas décadas. En sus páginas, nos acerca de primera mano a la personalidad de quienes han pilotado el devenir del centroderecha en España, con sus convicciones y sus complejos, en medio de pugnas internas o frente a sus rivales de los otros partidos.

Rosa Díez resume en este libro los hechos tal y como ocurrieron para impedir que se altere la verdad, para que cada cual asuma la parte de responsabilidad que le corresponde, por acción o por falta de respuesta. Porque la historia no es solo lo que pasó, es también el análisis de por qué pasó. Por eso estas páginas son un testimonio de los acontecimientos y del comportamiento de quienes fueron —y siguen siendo— los protagonistas del tiempo político.

You've heard the titles, like Secretary of State, Attorney General and others who's faces dominate the news (especially at the start of a new presidency). But what do these people actually do AND what are they supposed to do? This book aims to clear away the mystique.

This is a book of proposals I put together for the new administration and nation to review, with reasons for them. As we witnessed in this past election, there were millions of disillusioned citizens out there willing to start a civil war when their candidate lost. I strongly believe that the basic reason for the discontent had been feeling isolated from the round table of strangers who made decisions controlling their lives.
