«Ad personam» is the political essay by Marco Travaglio, published by Chiarelettere in paperback (610 pages, in Italian).
The book examines how the Italian right and left privatized democracy between 1994 and 2010, legislating to suit the powerful and corporations. Travaglio reviews ad personam laws that benefited those charged with corruption and tax fraud, amnesties, pardons and other measures that allowed justice to be evaded and the rule of law to be eroded.
Originally published on March 31, 2010; the cover includes the subtitle «1994-2010. Così destra e sinistra hanno privatizzato la democrazia».
For readers of political essays and accounts of institutional corruption in Italy.
