Ahora, ante la xenofobia, la misoginia, el nacionalismo, el populismo y otros azotes característicos de ese régimen, ¿cuáles son las mayores amenazas para la región? Con el mejor estilo de los panfletos y libelos políticos de los siglos x ix y xx, Jorge Volpi alza la voz en contra de Trump, sus ideas y sus acciones, propone un entendimiento claro y racional de su peligroso pensamiento, y también políticas, contrapesos y resistencias a las peores lacras de su administración.
Jorge Volpi, (México, 1968) es autor de novelas, entre ellas En busca de Klingsor (Premio Biblioteca Breve y Deux-Océans-Grinzane Cavour) y El fin de la locura. También ha escrito ensayos como La imaginación y el poder. Una historia intelectual de 1968 y Examen de mi padre. Diez lecciones de anatomía comparada. Con Mentiras contagiosas obtuvo el Premio Mazatlán de Literatura 2008. En 2009 le fueron concedidos el II Premio de Ensayo Debate-Casamérica por su libro El insomnio de Bolívar, y el Premio Iberoamericano José Donoso, de Chile, por el conjunto de su obra.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Why was Donald Trump elected as president of the United States? His win tells a lot about the most powerful country in the world and its people, but it also says a lot about us as a society.
Now, in the face of xenophobia, misogyny, nationalism, populism, and other menaces specific to that regime, what are the biggest threats to the region?
With the best style reminiscent of political pamphlets of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Jorge Volpi raises his voice against Trump, his ideas and his actions.
Volpi also proposes that readers should have a clear and rational understanding of Trump’s dangerous way of thinking and policies, and how to resist the worst hurdles of his administration.
JORGE VOLPI(México, 1968) has authored many novels including En busca de Klingsor / In Search of Klingsor (Winner of the Premio Biblioteca Breve and Deux-Océans-Grinzane Cavour awards), and El fin de la locura / The End of Madness. He has also written essays such as La imaginación y el poder. Una historia intelectual de 1968 / Power and Imagination. Intellectual History of 1968 and Examen de mi padre / My Father’s Examination. With Mentiras contagiosas / Contagious Lies, he won the 2008 Mazatlán Literature Prize. In 2009 he was awarded the 2nd Debate-Casamerica Essay award for his book El insomnio de Bolívar / Bolivar’s Insomnia, and Chile’s José Donoso Ibero-American Prize for his work in general.
