Instead, she argues it has consistently relied on violence and shock, and reveals the puppet strings behind the critical events of the last four decades. It is a story about violence and shock perpetrated on people, on countries, on economies.īased on breakthrough historical research and four years of on-the-ground reporting in disaster zones, Klein explodes the myth that the global free market triumphed democratically, and that unfettered capitalism goes hand-in-hand with democracy. But it is a story radically different from the one usually told. Naomi Klein’s third book, The Shock Doctrine is the unofficial story of how the “free market” came to dominate the world. The Shock Doctrine was originally published in September 2007. The New York Times and International #1 bestseller, Winner of the 2009 Warwick Prize for Writing and translated into over 30 languages.
