The German Chancellor Angela Merkel confirmation in 2009 for the fourth consecutive year his presence as "most powerful woman on the planet" . At Merkel is credited with "Pulled" by the economic woes in Germany ahead of schedule and it is said that in September some will win a second term. According to the weekly
Forbes, who has published two days ago the annual ranking dominated by business, with the exception of Merkel, the first place for the fourth time, the other nine in the squad head are all heads of 'company, whether it's French Anne Lauvergeon, president of the French nuclear group Areva - 9 number as in 2008 - or U.S. Irene Rosenfeld, president of Kraft Foods (sixth). If last year was the seventh position of Condoleezza Rice, then Secretary of State, the current head of U.S. diplomacy, Hillary Clinton, completed in 2009 to 36th place in 2008 was the 28th, when it was not that Senator of the State of New York. The French Economy Minister Christine Lagarde is in 17th place, relegated three positions, and U.S. first lady Michelle Obama is entering the fortieth place. The Argentine President Cristina Fernandez is the eleventh, 13th last year.
Marina Berlusconi, as in the previous rankings, is the only Italian that Forbes recognizes power in the international scale of values \u200b\u200band gain a position from 34 to 33rd place. The other Italian for "weight" Giuliana Benetton is out of the top 100 in 2008 and his daughter the Head of Government and chairman of the Fininvest group help the lonely 'cordata' Italian unless it wants to include Sonia Gandhi, president of the Indian National Party, which also increased from 21 to 13th step.
What is most striking in the 2009 version of the estimated ranking, is the advance of American women who - despite the crisis, or perhaps because of it - go from 55 appearances last year to the current 63. On the other hand have disappeared from the international panel of two Russian female power and the four Chinese who broke the monotonous list of Anglo-Saxon.
Women "sun" are not few. Germany's Merkel and just, Italy Marina Berlusconi, Ana Patricia Botin, Spain (chairman of Banesto), Cristina Fernandez of Argentina, Australia, Gail Kelly, Westpac's number one, Switzerland Margaret Chan, Director-General World health organization. The United Arab Emirates that make their entry represented by the Minister of Economy Sheikha Lubna Al Qasimi.
Women and the economy are inseparable. And more and more women are emerging in an industry dominated by men such as the global economic strategies. Two American anthropologists Steven Kuhn and Mary Stiner have shown the woman who always took charge of running the household worked and saved wisely, has woven wire and cooked food, has cultivated the land and handling the clay. In a word she invented the economy. And now? Now she manages other companies, he deepened his studies with the same wisdom of the time, with determination, a sense of reality, with a broader vision on the world that does not end in a few lands close to her.
