In the first decade of the 21st century, the Valencian Community has attracted the attention of public opinion the broad electoral majorities of the Popular Party, the policy of large and expensive events - with the consequent public investments - and by the notoriety of the related judicial causes with the political corruption that dot the main leaders of the PP and the autonomous government. The Valencian anomaly emerges as much more than an anecdote about deviation and abuse of power or illegal financing: the creation reveals a system that rests in democratic institutions and uses irregular mechanisms - client, corruption, media policy and neopopulism - to establish a partisan hegemony destined to prevail in the government by consolidating decisive advantages that alter the game of multi-party competition. Irregular practices, denounced by the media and the opposition, in the hands of the judges, have very little impact on the electorate. The book is interrogated by the mediations involved in the government system and by the networks that contribute to its success. Examining similar cases in other countries, it anticipates a risk forecast that the perpetuation of the established model represents for democratic functioning.
