Inhaltsangabe
As the Christian Democrats came to power after World War II, the Italian people hoped for a renewed Italy but their trust had been misplaced. In the first full English-language account of the Clean Hands crisis, Patrick McCarthy finds the roots of Berlusconi's rise and fall in the practices of clientalism, the machinations of the Mafia, the corporate direction of Fiat, the edicts of the Vatican, and even the organization of the Italian life. McCarthy also considers theestablishment of the historic center-left government that took power in mid-1996.

Críticas
'McCarthy gives an exemplary account - the best to appear in English so far - of what went wrong with the Italian State during the nearly fifty-year duration of the First Republic.' - Times Literary Supplement
'(McCarthy) lays bare the causes of the decline of the ancien régime...this is not a simple account of the death-throes of the Christian Democrats, but a study that explains contemporary Italy by delving into its past.' - Le Monde
'Learned and thought-provoking...McCarthy has many shrewd things to say about the corruption of the state and its relations with a rapidly changing Italian society...lucid, insightful, and original.' - Foreign Affairs
