«La revancha de los poderosos» is the political essay by Moisés Naím, published by Debate in paperback (376 pages, in Spanish).
In this essay, Moisés Naím analyzes how dictators, populists and companies erode democracies without resorting to military conquest. His thesis is that power has learned to imitate democratic procedures in order to empty them from within. Throughout the book he explains how power is achieved, exercised and lost in the 21st century, and why this new authoritarian variant threatens open societies.
The Spanish translation is by María Luisa Rodríguez Tapia. The original English title is «The Revenge of Power». The work belongs to the Debate collection Ensayo y Pensamiento.
For adult readers interested in politics, democracy and current international affairs, as well as in the analysis of populism and post-truth.
