Yet instead of a rebirth for democracy, what emerged was a silent coup - namely, the unstoppable rise of global corporate power. Exposing the origins of this epic power grab as well as its present-day consequences, Silent Coup is the result of two investigative journalist's reports from 30 countries around the world. It provides an explosive guide to the rise of a corporate empire that now dictates how resources are allocated, how territories are governed, and how justice is defined"-- 0aBusiness and politics; Big Business; Democracy 0aBig business 0aInternational business enterprises 0aDemocracy.1 aKennard, Matt,08iOnline version:aProvost, Claire.tSilent coupdLondon ; New York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2023z9781350269996w(DLC) 2022034527
