| Summary, Abstract, Review | "The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" by John Perkins is an expanded edition of his original bestseller, offering 15 new chapters that update and deepen the narrative. In this work, Perkins reveals how he and others, referred to as economic hit men (EHMs), manipulated countries worldwide to amass trillions of dollars in debt, thereby extending corporate and political influence. He details the methods employed—false economics, threats, bribes, extortion, debt, deception, coups, assassinations, and military force—used by a powerful network of corporations, banks, governments, and influential individuals, termed the 'corporatocracy,' to maintain and expand their wealth and control. Perkins also discusses how the EHM strategies he once participated in have evolved and become more pervasive, affecting not only developing nations but also the United States and other developed countries. The book serves as both a confession and a call to action, providing insights into how individuals can recognize and challenge these systemic practices. |
