Confessions of an Economic Hitman 3 edition
Book •
"Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" is a controversial memoir where John Perkins recounts his time as an economic hitman (EHM) for a global consulting firm.
Perkins claims his job involved convincing developing countries to accept substantial loans for infrastructure development.
These loans, however, were designed to indebt the countries to the point where they would be under the control of the United States.
The book explores themes of corporate greed, political corruption, and the exploitation of developing nations.
Perkins details various tactics, including fraudulent financial reports, manipulation, and bribery, used to secure these deals.
Ultimately, the book serves as a critique of globalization and the role of economic power in shaping international relations.
