Description

In the previous edition, John Perkins exposes the destructive schemes of “economic killers”: he writes that these are high-paid professionals who drain trillions of dollars from countries all over the world. They use methods such as falsified financial reports, rigged elections, blackmail, extortion, sex, and murder.

Perkins himself worked with loans: it was his job to persuade strategically important states to borrow enormous sums of money for large-scale “science and technology” projects designed to maintain the interests of the richest people—while plunging countries into poverty and debt. And the more debt a country has, the easier it is to control.

In the new edition, Perkins describes in detail how he and others like him carried out their work. The book is supplemented with documentary evidence of the activities of “economic killers” for the period 2004–2015, as well as a scandalous section about the fact that the methods of “economic killers” are now being applied far more actively than ever—even in the very United States. New material covers countries: the Seychelles, Honduras, Ecuador, Libya, Turkey, Vietnam, China, the United States, and Western Europe.

Fear and debt are what the system of economic killings is built on. We are intimidated so that we pay any money and get into any debts. The system of economic killings—an artificial economy, bribes, surveillance, deception, debt, coups, murders, abuse of military power—has turned into a dominant economic, governmental, and social system.

John Perkins was the first to tell about the monstrously cynical secret operations of intelligence services and the oligarchic clans of America that they carry out around the world. In terms of the importance of the schemes he revealed, modern whistleblowers stand in the same row with him—Julian Assange and Edward Snowden, who are now being hunted by U.S. intelligence services.
