Scopri il mondo Focus. Ogni mese in edicola potrai scegliere la rivista che più di appassiona. Focus il magazine di divulgazione scientifica più letto in Italia, Focus Storia per conoscere la storia in modo nuovo ed avvincente e Focus Domande & Risposte per chi ama l'intrattenimento curioso e intelligente.

Nel nuovo numero di Focus Storia, in occasione delle elezioni presidenziali americane, esploriamo l'affascinante e complesso mondo della politica statunitense. Ci poniamo domande sul sistema elettorale, le sue radici storiche e i paradossi che lo caratterizzano, come la possibilità che un candidato vinca con meno voti popolari. L’articolo "Dentro il sistema" fa luce su questi meccanismi, mentre "Scenario complesso" racconta una delle tornate elettorali più particolari di 200 anni fa.

In "Risultati controversi" analizziamo le elezioni più contestate della storia americana, e con "Tattiche e strategie elettorali" esploriamo come le campagne presidenziali si sono evolute con l'arrivo di nuove tecnologie, dall’epoca della radio a quella dell’intelligenza artificiale.

Concludiamo con una visita virtuale alla Casa Bianca, simbolo della presidenza americana, e l’articolo "Presidenti nei guai", che svela i problemi legali in cui sono incappati alcuni dei leader più noti degli Stati Uniti.

Tra gli altri temi, troviamo una nuova generazione di protesi intelligenti sempre più sofisticate, e celebriamo i 50 anni dal famoso messaggio di Arecibo con "Pronto alieni?".
