| Zusammenfassung: | "In 1999 Tobias Jones emigrated to Italy, expecting to discover the pastoral bliss described by centuries of foreign visitors. Instead, he discovered a country riven by skulduggery, where crime is scarcely ever met with punishment. This book is his account of a three-year voyage across the Italian peninsula. In this new and updated edition, Jones offers in-depth analysis of the recent triumphs and crimes of Italian football: a World Cup victory shadowed by the discovery of endemic corruption in Serie A. He returns to previous haunts - to parliament, prisons and courtrooms - to pick up the threads of previous investigations, and inevitably discovers surreal new ones. And he looks back on the Berlusconi era, weighing changes in the media and the economy, as well as in his own perceptions of Italy's extraordinary qualities and quirks."--Publisher's website |

Instead, he discovered a country riven by skulduggery, where crime is scarcely ever met with punishment. This book is his account of a three-year voyage across the Italian peninsula. In this new and updated edition, Jones offers in-depth analysis of the recent triumphs and crimes of Italian football: a World Cup victory shadowed by the discovery of endemic corruption in Serie A. He returns to previous haunts - to parliament, prisons and courtrooms - to pick up the threads of previous investigations, and inevitably discovers surreal new ones. And he looks back on the Berlusconi era, weighing changes in the media and the economy, as well as in his own perceptions of Italy's extraordinary qualities and quirks."--Publisher's website Geschichte 1999-2003 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1999-2013 gnd rswk-swf Skandal (DE-588)4125832-0 gnd rswk-swf Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 gnd rswk-swf Nationalcharakter (DE-588)4137343-1 gnd rswk-swf Kriminalität (DE-588)4033178-7 gnd rswk-swf Kultur (DE-588)4125698-0 gnd rswk-swf Italien (DE-588)4027833-5 gnd rswk-swf Italy / Description and travel Political corruption / Italy Italy / Politics and government / 1994- Italy / Social conditions / 1994- Italy / Social life and customs / 1945- Manners and customs Political corruption Politics and government Social conditions Travel Italy Since 1945 1\p (DE-588)4133254-4 Erlebnisbericht gnd-content Italien (DE-588)4027833-5 g Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 s Geschichte 1999-2013 z DE-604 Kultur (DE-588)4125698-0 s Geschichte 1999-2003 z 2\p DE-604 3\p DE-604 Skandal (DE-588)4125832-0 s 4\p DE-604 Kriminalität (DE-588)4033178-7 s 5\p DE-604 Nationalcharakter (DE-588)4137343-1 s 6\p DE-604 V:DE-604 application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=031627911&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 6\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
