"Impassioned, hugely informative, wonderfully controversial, and scary as hell." -- John le Carr "Bold and brilliantly conceived . . . Klein may well have revealed the master narrative of our time." -- William S. Kowinski, San Francisco Chronicle "This is a brilliant book, one of the most important I have read in a long time." -- Howard Zinn "Klein provides a rich description of the political machinations required to force unsavory economic policies on resisting countries and of the human toll. She paints a disturbing portrait of hubris, not only on the part of Friedman but also of those who adopted his doctrines, sometimes to pursue more corporatist objectives." -- Joseph E. Stiglitz, The New York Times Book Review "A brilliant, brave, and terrifying book. It's nothing less than the secret history of what we call the 'free market.'

Synopsis
In this groundbreaking alternative history of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free-market economic revolution, Naomi Klein challenges the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory. From Chile in 1973 to Iraq today, Klein shows how Friedman and his followers have repeatedly harnessed terrible shocks and violence to implement their radical policies. As John Gray wrote in The Guardian, "There are very few books that really help us understand the present. The Shock Doctrine is one of those books.", The bestselling author of No Logo shows how the global "free market" has exploited crises and shock for three decades, from Chile to Iraq In her groundbreaking reporting, Naomi Klein introduced the term "disaster capitalism." Whether covering Baghdad after the U.S. occupation, Sri Lanka in the wake of the tsunami, or New Orleans post-Katrina, she witnessed something remarkably similar. People still reeling from catastrophe were being hit again, this time with economic "shock treatment," losing their land and homes to rapid-fire corporate makeovers. The Shock Doctrine retells the story of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free market economic revolution. In contrast to the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory, Klein shows how it has exploited moments of shock and extreme violence in order to implement its economic policies in so many parts of the world from Latin America and Eastern Europe to South Africa, Russia, and Iraq. At the core of disaster capitalism is the use of cataclysmic events to advance radical privatization combined with the privatization of the disaster response itself. Klein argues that by capitalizing on crises, created by nature or war, the disaster capitalism complex now exists as a booming new economy, and is the violent culmination of a radical economic project that has been incubating for fifty years., The bestselling author of No Logo shows how the global "free market" has exploited crises and shock for three decades from Chile to Iraq

    The book looks to be brand new, better than described! It was shipped quickly, and I'm glad to say it survived being packaged in only a mylar envelope. I would like to see better packaging, but what the hey, it arrived in one piece, so I'll be grateful for that. I would not hesitate to purchase from this Seller again. Thank you, halfpricebooksrecordsmag, for a perfect transaction!

    Quick shipment by seller--Fair price for shipping--Item packaged very well--Good communication--I am very satisfied with this seller and this transaction--Thank you--Be Safe However, this book had terrible photo reproduction, which is NOT the fault of the seller, but IS the fault of the book's publisher--Most of the images were printed way too dark and too contrasty, so many details were impossible to see--Some of the research was insufficient and, in some cases, was practically non-existent

  • Did a good job documenting the historical pattern of capitalism.

    Most people don’t understand one negative dynamic of capitalism: That capitalism itself will indeed trigger a downturn, depression , recession, and economic collapse of another country, in order that it can exploit and “carpet bag” the other country, an other corporation an other group of people. Hedge funds in the stock market will “target” a stock, sell it off, to drive the price down, then buy it back. It could be a conscious collusion or an unconscious collusion. It’s just the way capitalism makes money without making any product. The same with an economic blockade of a country, one that has oil, like Venezuela or Iran. Knock the country down, come in and carpet bag, buy up the resources for cheap. Capitalism doesn’t say anything about “being fair, or being ethical”. Capitalism just ...

  • Incredible indictment of the "Chicago Boys"

    Naomi Klein gives an impassioned and very orderly indictment of a school of economics that seems bent on benefiting the few. Her original version came out in 2007 before the financial debacle in the USA. Her study of eight separate cases in different countries is shocking and will explain a side of the IMF and top economists most people didn't knoe existed. It is one of the most impressive books I have ever read.
