Naomi Klein. Rise of Disaster Capitalism
Description
In this compelling film, Naomi Klein explains the ideas and research behind her international best seller The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism - which boldly challenges and exposes the popular myth of the free-market economy's peaceful global victory. Around the world are those with the power to cash in on chaos as they exploit bloodshed and catastrophe to brutally implement their policies. These are the shock doctors. Moving from Chile in 1973 to Iraq today, Klein reveals a chilling tale of how a scattering of individuals is making a killing while many more are getting killed.
