Antonio Scurati, el autor del best seller internacional M. El hijo del siglo, analiza en este breve ensayo losmecanismos y las trampas de los populismos actuales. Hoy asistimos en todo el mundo a una notable y sostenida ola de lÃderes populistas que, como los lÃderes fascistas del pasado, obtienen gran parte de su poder al cuestionar la realidad, respaldar mitos, promover la ira y la paranoia y difundir mentiras. La retórica oficial de estos lÃderes y movimientos polÃticos, que, pese a moverse dentro del juego democrático desprecian la democracia, descienden consciente o inconscientemente del Mussolini que por primera vez intuyó los mecanismos de la seducción polÃtica en la sociedad de masas. Tras años entregado a un combate cuerpo a cuerpo, histórico y literario, con los protagonistas del fascismo del siglo pasado, Scurati se eleva por encima de esa materia candente y en estas páginas identifica con precisión quirúrgica sus leyes y sus trampas. Un texto fundamental para abordar la inquieta época que vivimos. Endebate es el hogar de aquellos textos breves que presentan una opinión, defienden una actitud o cuentan una historia, pero son más un aperitivo que un banquete, estimulan la conversación más que saciarla e inician un festÃn (que no clausuran). Como los mejores bocados, entran por los ojos y dejan un largo poso en el paladar. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this brief essay, Antonio Scurati, author of the international bestseller M. Son of the Century, analyses the mechanisms and traps of current populisms.
Today we witness a notable and continuous wave of populist leaders around the world that, just as fascist leaders in the past, draw much of their power by questioning reality, endorsing myths, promoting anger and paranoia, and spreading lies. The official rhetoric of these leaders and political movements, whom, in spite of acting inside the democratic game, disregard democracy, consciously or unconsciously descends from the Mussolini who first intuited the mechanisms of political seduction in a society of masses. After years dedicated to a hand-to-hand combat, both historical and literary, against fascist protagonists of the past century, Scurati soars above this hot matter and, in these pages, identifies, with chirurgical precision, their laws and traps. An essential read to address the troubled times we live in. Debate is home to brief texts that express opinions, defend attitudes, or tell a story, but they are more an aperitif, than a banquet; they stimulate conversation, rather than quench it, and open the feast (which they do not end.) Like the best mouthfuls, they come in through the eyes and leave a large residue on your palate.
