Reseña del libro "The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream (Vintage Books) (en Inglés)"

In July 2004 Barack Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention with an address that spoke to Americans across the political spectrum. One phrase in particular anchored itself in listeners minds a reminder that for all the discord and struggle to be found in our history as a nation we have always been guided by a dogged optimism in the future or what Obama called the audacity of hope. The Audacity of Hope is Barack Obama s call for a different brand of politics a politics for those weary of bitter partisanshipand alienated by the endless clash of armies we see in congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith inclusiveness and nobility of spirit at the heart of our improbable experiment in democracy. He explores those forces from the fear of losing to the perpetual need to raise money to the power of the media that can stifle even the best intentioned politician. He also writes with surprising intimacy and self deprecating humor about settling in as a senator seeking to balance the demands of public service and family life and his own deepening religious commitment.At the heart of this book is Barack Obama s vision of how we can move beyond our divisions to tackle concrete problems. He examines the growing economic insecurity of American families the racial and religious tensions within the body politic and the transnational threats from terrorism to pandemic that gather beyond our shores. And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy where it is vital and where it must never intrude. Underlying his stories about family friends and members of the Senate is a vigorous search for connection the foundation for a radically hopeful political consensus. A public servant and a lawyer a professor and a father a Christian and a skeptic and above all a student of history and human nature Barack Obama has written a book of transforming power. Only by returning to the principles that gave birth to our Constitution he says can Americans repair a political process that is broken and restore to working order a government that has fallen dangerously out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans. Those Americans are out there he writes waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them. From the Hardcover edition.
