More about the book
The book exposes the strategies employed by the international corporate elite to manipulate global politics for their gain. It details the formation of business associations and think tanks in the 1970s that influenced public policy, leading to the privatization of essential services in the following decades. Additionally, it critiques the ongoing efforts to reshape the global economy, warning against the consequences of corporate dominance, such as conflict and environmental degradation. Beder encourages readers to envision and strive for a democratic world that prioritizes people's needs over corporate interests.
