The Third Confession of an Economic Hitman
How to stop the relentless advance of economic hitmen and China's dominance?
The stunning third edition of the New York Times bestseller sheds light on the Chinese strategy of economic hitmen (EHM), exposes corruption on a global scale, and offers long-awaited... solutions to put an end to the destructive death economy.
In this shocking revelation, former economic hitman John Perkins provides an insider's view of the corrupt system that deceitfully and forcefully siphons trillions of dollars from countries around the world, ultimately leading to monstrous inequality and ecological disaster.
EHMs are high-paid professionals who persuade countries to take development loans, burdening them with enormous debts and forcing them to serve U.S. interests. A new wave of economic hitmen has surged around the world, with China at the peak of destruction, the new dominant economic power with its own insidious version of the American EHM scheme. In twelve new damning chapters, the appeal and destructive impact of the Chinese EHM strategy in Latin America, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe is detailed.
If we turn a blind eye to the outrages of economic hitmen, regardless of who is in charge—be it the U.S. or China—they will destroy life on our planet. However, not all is lost yet. Perkins offers a plan to transform this profit-driven system into a life economy that restores the Earth. He inspires readers to take actions leading to a new era of global cooperation that will put an end to the EHM strategies of both the U.S. and China forever.
