Naomi Klein
I just finished reading Naomi Klein's book (The Shock Doctrine) and this book is one of the best books about economy I have read for quite some time. It talks about how international corporation (or local corporations sometimes) take advantage of people's shock to pass regulations that gives these corporations access to resources that they can never get their hands on under normal circumstances. It also explains what happened in Iraq when Paul Bremer almost put Iraq for sale back in 2004 and gives examples of how big corporations take advantage of poor third world countries and drive their shaken economies into the mud. Anyway, a great read for anybody who is interested in the way global corporations do business around the world.
