BEYOND BANKSTERS, by Joyce Nelson, exposes the “venal class” of corporate elites – their quest to permanently entrench corporate rights through trade deals, their secretive meetings, and their movements through the revolving door of private investment firms and government.
Drawing on years of investigative journalism, Joyce Nelson weaves together a huge breadth of information, providing examples of effective resistance to the corporate power structure along with her acute diagnosis of its ills.
The book names the people and organizations responsible, and outlines a step-by-step erosion of the public interest mandate that has allowed trade deals such as NAFTA, CETA, the TPP, and TISA to open up public services to corporate takeover and limit our ability to control banks and investment corporations. Nelson exposes the major players privatizing the world and creating a new state of feudalism. Iceland resisted and so can we.
