In her final days in office she compiled the explosive State of Capture report and, two years before that, Secure in Comfort, the report on President Jacob Zuma’s Nkandla residence.

Yet, despite the intense media scrutiny, Madonsela remains something of an enigma. Who is this soft-spoken woman who stood up to state corruption? Where did she develop her views and resolve?

Fremdenfeindlichkeit und Hass auf "den Staat": Verlieren wir den Osten Deutschlands? Das Buch sucht Antworten auf das Warum der Radikalisierung, ohne die aktuell bestimmende Opfererzählung nach 1989 zu bedienen. Es erzählt von den Schweigegeboten nach dem Ende der NS-Zeit, der Geschichtsklitterung der DDR und den politischen Umschreibungen nach der deutschen Einheit. Verdrängung und Verleugnung prägen die Gesellschaft bis ins Private hinein, wie die Autorin mit der eigenen Familiengeschichte eindrucksvoll erzählt.

Fue también una madre afectuosa y una esposa enamorada que conoció - como luego su hija Juana - el tormento de los celos, pero que no dudó a la hora de reservarse el gobierno del reino que le era propio aún a despecho de su esposo, Fernando de Aragón. Una visión íntima y cercana de la reina más poderosa de su tiempo.

Matteo Salvini ha preso in mano la Lega quando era immersa negli scandali. Oggi invece la Lega è viva e vegeta, governa molte regioni del Settentrione, fa alleanze in Europa con movimenti in ascesa come quello di Le Pen in Francia. Come ha fatto un giovane dirigente, dalle maniere ruvide e dalla grande efficacia televisiva, spesso preso in giro per le sue felpe, a mantenere la barra dritta, diventare un leader di livello nazionale, assomigliare sempre di più a un'alternativa al renzismo e al grillismo, oltre i perimetri del centrodestra berlusconiano?
