This book is to date the first monograph-length study of the popular American political TV series House of Cards. It proposes an encompassing analysis of the first three seasons from the unusual angles of discourse and dialogue. The study of the stylistic idiosyncrasies of the ruthless main protagonist, Frank Underwood, is completed by a pragmatic and cognitive approach exposing the main characters’ manipulative strategies to win over the other. Taking into account the socio-cultural context and the specificities of the TV medium, the volume focuses on the workings of interaction as well as the impact of the direct address to the viewer. The book critically uses the latest theories in pragmatics and stylistics in its attempt at providing a pragma-rhetorical theory of manipulation.

Is Democracy overrated? Does power corrupt? Or do corrupt people seek power? Do corporate puppet masters pull politicians’ strings? Why does Frank talk to the camera? Can politics deliver on the promise of justice? House of Cards depicts our worst fears about politics today. Love him or loathe him, Frank Underwood has charted an inimitable course through Washington politics. He and his cohorts depict the darkest dealings within the gleaming halls of our most revered political institutions. These 24 original essays examine key philosophical issues behind the critically-acclaimed series—questions of truth, justice, equality, opportunity, and privilege. The amoral machinations of Underwood, the ultimate anti-hero, serve as an ideal backdrop for a discussion of the political theories of philosophers as diverse as Plato, Aristotle, Nietzsche, Machiavelli, Hobbes, and Marx. From political and corporate ethics, race relations, and ruthless paragmatism to mass media collusion and sexual politics, these essays tackle a range of issues important not only to the series but to our understanding of society today.

Un acercamiento singular y único a la serie House of Cards , que analiza las tesis filosóficas que se esconden y se pueden extraer del mítico universo protagonizado por el matrimonio Frank y Claire Underwood. ¿Sobrestimamos la democracia? ¿El poder corrompe? ¿O es que los corruptos ansían el poder? ¿Las grandes empresas mueven los hilos de los políticos? ¿Puede la política cumplir con las promesas de justicia? ¿Por qué Frank Underwood habla directamente a cámara? En House of Cards se representan nuestros peores temores acerca de la política de hoy en día. Lo podemos amar o bien odiar, pero lo cierto es que Frank Underwood ha trazado una carrera meteórica inimitable en Washington. Él y sus cohortes han establecido las relaciones más oscuras dentro de los pasillos relucientes de las veneradas instituciones políticas americanas. Los veinticuatro ensayos originales presentes en este libro examinan cuestiones filosóficas clave que hay detrás de conceptos que estructuran la serie, como son los de verdad, justicia, igualdad, oportunidad o privilegio. Las maquinaciones de Frank Underwood se mueven en el terreno de la amoralidad, estamos delante de un anti-héroe que vehicula en su interior una discusión, un choque, de las teorías políticas de varios y tan diversos filósofos como Platón, Aristóteles, Nietzsche, Maquiavelo, Hobbes o Marx. A partir de la ética política y empresarial, las relaciones raciales, el pragmatismo implacable y los medios de comunicación, estos ensayos abordan una serie de cuestiones importantes no sólo para entender House of Cards, sino también para poder comprender nuestra sociedad actual. La crítica ha dicho... «Para comprender los entresijos del poder político y económico actuales.» La Vanguardia «William Irwin y J. Edward Hackett se dedican a escarbar en las entrañas de House of Cards para ordenarlas y volver a ponerlas sobre la mesa de una forma elocuente e inteligente.» Fantastic Plastic Mag «Uno de sus grandes éxitos es el afán de divulgación y el didactismo que proyectan todos los ensayos.» Fantasymundo

A blistering narrative account of the negligence and greed that pushed all of Wall Street into chaos and the country into a financial crisis. At the beginning of March 2008, the monetary fabric of Bear Stearns, one of the world’s oldest and largest investment banks, began unraveling. After ten days, the bank no longer existed, its assets sold under duress to rival JPMorgan Chase. The effects would be felt nationwide, as the country suddenly found itself in the grip of the worst financial mess since the Great Depression. William Cohan exposes the corporate arrogance, power struggles, and deadly combination of greed and inattention, which led to the collapse of not only Bear Stearns but the very foundations of Wall Street.
