Henry Kissinger analiza c???mo seis l???deres extraordinarios, a los que conoci??? de cerca, dieron forma a sus pa???ses y al mundo que hoy conocemos. ???Pretende ser un manual para los l???deres de hoy y de ma???ana???. -The New Statesman Henry Kissinger, uno de los principales estrategas pol???ticos del siglo xx, analiza en este nuevo libro los perfiles de seis de los l???deres mundiales m???s fascinantes e influyentes del pasado reciente: Konrad Adenauer, Charles de Gaulle, Richard Nixon, Anwar Sadat, Lee Kuan Yew y Margaret Thatcher. Todos ellos se formaron en un periodo en el que las instituciones establecidas se derrumbaban en Europa, las estructuras coloniales daban paso a estados independientes en Asia y ???frica y hubo que crear un nuevo orden internacional a partir de los vestigios del anterior. Kissinger repasa el camino de De Gaulle para reconstruir la Francia postimperial, la rehabilitaci???n llevada a cabo por Adenauer de una Alemania devastada por la guerra o el ???xito del experimento de la peque???a ciudad Estado de Lee Kuan Yew en Singapur. El an???lisis de estos procesos sirve para mostrar las estrategias de gobierno de unos l???deres que, impulsados por un alto sentido de Estado, se propusieron posicionar a sus respectivos pa???ses en el centro del tablero pol???tico mundial. La perspectiva del autor no tiene parang???n: es la de un historiador de primer orden que conoci??? y estuvo implicado en los acontecimientos que se relatan. La experiencia como alto representante p???blico, el conocimiento personal de los protagonistas y la carrera pol???tica de Kissinger enriquecen un libro que atestigua c???mo la combinaci???n del car???cter de los personajes y las circunstancias de cada situaci???n es lo que acaba dando forma a la historia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An instant New York Times bestseller Henry Kissinger, consummate diplomat, and statesman, examines the strategies of six great twentieth-century figures and brings to life a unifying theory of leadership and diplomacy. "An extraordinary book, one that braids together two through lines in the long and distinguished career of former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger...In Leadership he presents a fascinating set of historical case studies and political biographies that blend the dance and the dancer, seamlessly." --James Stavridis, The Wall Street Journal "Leaders," writes Henry Kissinger in this compelling book, "think and act at the intersection of two axes: the first, between the past and the future; the second, between the abiding values and aspirations of those they lead. They must balance what they know, which is necessarily drawn from the past, with what they intuit about the future, which is inherently conjectural and uncertain. It is this intuitive grasp of direction that enables leaders to set objectives and lay down a strategy." In Leadership , Kissinger analyses the lives of six extraordinary leaders through the distinctive strategies of statecraft, which he believes they embodied. After the Second World War, Konrad Adenauer brought defeated and morally bankrupt Germany back into the community of nations by what Kissinger calls "the strategy of humility." Charles de Gaulle set France beside the victorious Allies and renewed its historic grandeur by "the strategy of will." During the Cold War, Richard Nixon gave geostrategic advantage to the United States by "the strategy of equilibrium." After twenty-five years of conflict, Anwar Sadat brought a vision of peace to the Middle East by a "strategy of transcendence." Against the odds, Lee Kuan Yew created a powerhouse city-state, Singapore, by "the strategy of excellence." And, though Britain was know
