American Darkness

The United States is still at the center of the global stage, but what direction are they taking? And what consequences will Donald Trump's return have on international politics, Europe, and the balances of the 21st century?

On Thursday July 30, at 6:00 p.m., the Grand Hotel Savoia in Cortina d'Ampezzo will host one of the most anticipated events of the series with Mario Del Pero, one of the leading Italian scholars in the history and politics of the United States.

Drawing from his new book American Darkness, Del Pero offers a clear and well-documented reading of contemporary America, analyzing the deep roots of the new Trump presidency: political polarization, institutional crisis, economic inequalities, social tensions, and the redefinition of Washington's international role. A journey into the transformations of a superpower that continues to influence the fate of the world.

Full Professor of International History and History of the United States at Sciences Po in Paris and author of reference essays on American foreign policy, Del Pero guides the audience beyond the news, providing the tools to understand one of the most delicate passages in contemporary history. An unmissable meeting for those who want to interpret the present and look more consciously towards the future of global balances.
