Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
Disaster has become big business. Best-selling journalist Antony Loewenstein travÂels across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Haiti, Papua New Guinea, the United States, Britain, Greece, and Australia to witness the reality of disaster capitalism.
He discovers how companies cash in on orÂganized misery in a hidden world of privatized detention centers, militarized private security, aid profiteering, and destructive mining. What emerges through Loewenstein's reÂporting is a dark history of multinational corpoÂrations that, with the aid of media and political elites, have grown more powerful than national governments.
In the twenty-first century, the vulnerable have become the world's most valuÂable commodity.
