Silvio Berlusconi, a self-made man with a taste for luxurious
living, owner of a huge television empire and the politician who
likened a German MEP to a Nazi concentration camp guard-small
wonder that much of democratic Europe and America has responded
with considerable dismay and disdain to his governance of Italy.
Paul Ginsborg, contemporary Italy's foremost historian, explains
here why we should take Berlusconi seriously. His new book combines
historical narrative-Berlusconi's childhood in the dynamic and
paternalist Milanese bourgeoisie, his strict religious schooling, a
working life which has encompassed crooning, large construction
projects and the creation of a commercial television empire-with
careful analysis of Berlusconi's political development. While
highlighting the particular italianita of Berlusconi's trajectory,
Ginsborg also finds international tendencies, such as the distorted
relationship between the media system and politics. Throughout,
Ginsborg suggests that Berlusconi has gotten as far as he has
thanks to the wide-open space left by the strategic weaknesses of
modern left-wing politics.
