Pean, First Edition (87 results)

Couverture souple. Condition: Très bon. Edition originale. La démocratie est-elle en train de tuer la démocratie, à bas bruit ? L'actualité a égrené depuis quinze ans des scandales politico-financiers sans que nous ne puissions en comprendre la logique, s'il devait même y en avoir une. Après plus d'un an d'enquête, au cours de laquelle de très nombreux acteurs, jusqu'au sommet de l'Etat, ont accepté de lui parler, à condition que cela soit souvent en "off", Pierre Péan met au jour bien des aspects passés inaperçus sur les activités dans les zones grises de l'Etat. Dans toutes ces affaires, un seul enjeu : constituer un "trésor de guerre", en vue de la campagne présidentielle suivante. A chaque fois, il s'agit de tirer la manne des grands contrats civils ou militaires. Le durcissement de la législation sur le financement des partis a accouché d'un monstre : désormais, la pratique des rétrocommissions est devenue la règle d'un certain commerce international d'Etat. Cette "République des mallettes" a pris le pas sur l'Etat démocratique. Son fonctionnement et les décisions les plus stratégiques du pays semblent aiguillonnés, plutôt que par l'intérêt national, par le souci de perpétuer ce système et de le rendre le plus fluide possible par la constitution d'une oligarchie restreinte occupant les postes "stratégiques" : à la tête des grandes entreprises à capital public, à l'Elysée et dans les ministères régaliens. Une oligarchie pour qui l'argent est devenu roi. A travers l'incroyable itinéraire de l'un des "facilitateurs" de ce système, personnage au passé des plus troubles, Pierre Péan démonte une à une les pièces d'un mécanisme qui, si nous n'y prenons garde, finira par ronger le système démocratique français, comme c'est déjà le cas en Russie ou en Italie. Publié par Fayard en 2011, broché avec une couverture souple en très bon état, format 23.5 x 15.3 x 2.5 cm , 481 pages.
