Abstract

7 novembre 2020, 11 h 25. Après quatre jours de suspense, le démocrate Joe Biden est déclaré vainqueur de la présidentielle américaine. La Pennsylvanie, son État d’origine, lui a donné la victoire – sur le fil. Sa campagne, toute de discrétion, l’a emporté sur les provocations et gesticulations de Donald Trump. Cette victoire, il l’a dédiée à son fils Beau, mort d’un cancer en 2015. L’enquête de Jean-Bernard Cadier retrace le parcours d’un homme parvenu aux plus hautes fonctions à force de ténacité et de résilience. Une vie ponctuée de drames, de choix controversés et de gaffes monumentales. Mais Biden a démontré son courage et son habileté politique, qualités acquises sur le long chemin qui l’a mené de Scranton, sa ville natale, jusqu’au Bureau ovale. À 78 ans, il retrouve donc cette Maison Blanche où il a passé huit ans au côté de Barack Obama. Mais sera-t-il à la hauteur ? Pourra-t-il sortir son pays de la crise sanitaire et économique, sans majorité au Sénat ? Tel est le principal défi qui attend le 46e président des États-Unis.

Abstract

"In the squalid settlement of Poso Wells, women have been regularly disappearing, but the authorities have shown little interest. When the leading presidential candidate comes to town, he and his entourage are electrocuted in a macabre accident witnessed by a throng of astonished spectators. The sole survivor--next in line for the presidency--inexplicably disappears from sight. Gustavo Varas, a principled journalist, picks up the trail, which leads him into a violent, lawless underworld. Bella Altamirano, a fearless local, is on her own crusade to pierce the settlement's code of silence, ignoring repeated death threats. It turns out that the disappearance of the candidate and those of the women are intimately connected, and not just to a local crime wave, but to a multinational magnate's plan to plunder the country's cloud forest preserve."--

Abstract

"The big story about gender in the 2016 presidential year was supposed to be about Hillary Clinton, and her quest to become the first woman president of the United States. Then Donald Trump s candidacy for the Republican nomination took off, and the narrative took an unexpected turn. Gender was still a central force to be reckoned with, but contrary to the popular understanding of gender as synonymous with women, the gender issue at the heart of the Trump phenomenon had less to do with women and more to do with men. Trump s appeal was rooted in right-wing populism and know-nothing racism, but it was also based on his performance of a kind of can-do white masculinity that had been in decline in recent decades. Like Ronald Reagan, Trump understood implicitly that the desire for a strong, virile man in the White House runs deep in the American DNA. His supporters confirmed this every time they opened their mouths: He tells it like it is. He's his own man. He's not politically correct^^hn F. Kerry vs. George W. Bush : George W. Bush ; John F.

He's got balls. In other words, it's time to return a real man to the White House. To date, most conversations about gender and the presidency have focused on the special challenges women presidential candidates face: endless media scrutiny about their looks, their clothes, the deeply sexist attitudes and beliefs that keep people from believing a woman is capable of serving as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces. But gender has always been a crucial factor in presidential politics. In Man Enough? Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and the Politics of Presidential Masculinity, Jackson Katz puts forth the original and highly provocative thesis that in recent decades presidential campaigns have become the center stage of an ongoing national debate about manhood, a kind of quadrennial referendum on what type of man or one day, woman embodies not only our ideological beliefs, but our very identity as a nation. Whether he is examining right-wing talk radio s relentless attacks on the masculinrry vs. George W. Bush : George W. Bush ; John F.

In the end, Man Enough? offers nothing less than a paradigm-shifting way to understand the very nature of the American presidency." -- Amazon.com
