Das mächtigste Amt der deutschen Politik hat noch niemand freiwillig aufgegeben - außer Angela Merkel. Dabei hat sie sich gerade am Ende ihrer Amtszeit wieder als Krisenmanagerin bewährt und hohe Zustimmungswerte erhalten. Denn so schätzen sie die Deutschen: Angela Merkel ist so pragmatisch, wie Helmut Schmidt es gerne gewesen wäre. Ideologien, Weltanschauungen, Grundsatzfragen interessieren sie wenig.

Así comienza este recorrido en el que Felipe Calderón reflexiona sobre la compleja tarea de gobernar y lo que significa tomar decisiones en escenarios de incertidumbre, decisiones que, a fin de cuentas, nadie más quiere tomar.
