Reseña del editor
Un'esplorazione nelle realtà sociali e economiche delle capitali più ricche della Terra. Washington D.C. è molto più di quel che i visitatori vedono al Capitol e al National Hall, nei musei, nei monumenti e alla Casa Bianca. Il libro documenta una ricerca nell'altra città, quella che detiene il record di mortalità infantile della nazione, il numero più alto di gravidanze in età adolescenziale, dove le infezioni da AIDS sono dieci volte la media nazionale, e dove il 16% dei bambini vive in situazioni di povertà estrema. Il libro porta alla luce le esistenze che stanno dietro alle statistiche e i tremendi contrasti economici e sociali evidenti nel centro del potere mondiale. Le immagini colgono verità accantonate con superficialità da elite troppo occupate. La promessa di Washingtong DC, in un certo senso, è che la retorica vuota della upper class dovrebbe trasformarsi nel potenziale che potrebbe migliorare le vite calpestate dei propri cittadini nella realtà concreta della strada.

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. In the Shadow of Power is a shocking visual exposé of the harsh social and economic realities in the capital city of the richest nation on earth. Washington, D.C., is much more than its tourist destinations, and Venezuelan-born photographer Kike Arnal's book describes a search for that other city: a city that, incredibly, has the nation's highest infant mortality, teenage pregnancy and AIDS infection rates, and where 16 percent of local children live in extreme poverty. "With a population of roughly 570,000 people, the District of Columbia is, by world standards, a small city," Arnal writes. "Its manageable size would seem to indicate that Washington could fulfill expectations naturally associated with a city of its global stature, to take care of its people. The disparity that I saw compelled me to spend the next few years documenting Washington, D.C., in order to draw attention to the realities of the city." Arnal first visited Washington in 2002 while on an assignment, and was stunned by the poverty he encountered ("I was reminded of the marginal barrios back in my home country,"he recalls); here he brings to light the lives behind these grim statistics.
