Tyranny, Inc.
How Private Power Crushed American Liberty--and What to Do About It
Book • 2023
In 'Tyranny, Inc.', Sohrab Ahmari presents a detailed critique of neoliberal capitalism, arguing that private corporations have become a significant threat to American liberty.
The book explores various examples of corporate abuse, including the misuse of arbitration agreements, predatory practices by private equity firms, and the manipulation of working conditions.
Ahmari argues that these practices are a result of the neoliberal vision that has dominated economic and political discourse since the 1970s, and he proposes that a more integrated approach between economy and politics is necessary to address these issues.
