The Rise of Disaster Capitalism


The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism by Naomi Klein is a groundbreaking exploration of how the global free market has exploited crises and shock for the past three decades. From Chile to Iraq, the author introduces the term "disaster capitalism, " where people affected by catastrophic events are hit again with economic "shock treatment, " resulting in loss of land and homes to rapid-fire corporate makeovers. The book delves into the story of Milton Friedman's free market economic revolution, the dominant ideology of our time, and how it has used moments of shock and extreme violence to implement its economic policies in various regions, including Latin America, Eastern Europe, South Africa, Russia, and Iraq.

The Shock Doctrine highlights the use of catastrophic events to advance radical privatization and the privatization of disaster response itself. This booming new economy is the violent culmination of a radical economic project that has been incubating for fifty years.

The book features 576 pages and falls under the category of Business & Economics. It carries an average rating of 3.5 out of 5, with 10.0 ratings count, and is suitable for mature readers.
