Dans les dernières décennies de la République romaine, Marcus Tullius Cicéron se lance en politique pour briguer le consulat ; son frère Quintus lui apporte alors son expérience du terrain, dans son Petit manuel de campagne électorale. Le principe d'une campagne n'a pas changé depuis : gagne celui qui s'assure le soutien des personnages influents et manipule subtilement la masse des électeurs. Véritable Machiavel antique, Quintus Cicéron énumère toutes les "ficelles" qui mènent à la victoire : comment se constituer une clientèle d'obligés reconnaissants, se présenter avec sollicitude, etc. Ses conseils judicieux, précis et à la limite du cynisme fourniront une esquisse de campagne parfaite à tous ceux qui souhaitent étendre leur influence.

How to Win an Election is an ancient Roman guide for campaigning that is as up-to-date as tomorrow's headlines. In 64 BC when idealist Marcus Cicero, Rome's greatest orator, ran for consul (the highest office in the Republic), his practical brother Quintus decided he needed some no-nonsense advice on running a successful campaign. What follows in his short letter are timeless bits of political wisdom, from the importance of promising everything to everybody and reminding voters about the sexual scandals of your opponents to being a chameleon, putting on a good show for the masses, and constantly surrounding yourself with rabid supporters. Presented here in a lively and colorful new translation, with the Latin text on facing pages, this unashamedly pragmatic primer on the humble art of personal politicking is dead-on (Cicero won)--and as relevant today as when it was written. A little-known classic in the spirit of Machiavelli's Prince, How to Win an Election is required reading for politicians and everyone who enjoys watching them try to manipulate their way into office.
