Disaster has become big business. Best-selling journalist Antony
Loewenstein trav els across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Haiti, Papua New
Guinea, the United States, Britain, Greece, and Australia to
witness the reality of disaster capitalism. He discovers how
companies cash in on or ganized misery in a hidden world of
privatized detention centers, militarized private security, aid
profiteering, and destructive mining. What emerges through
Loewenstein's re porting is a dark history of multinational corpo
rations that, with the aid of media and political elites, have
grown more powerful than national governments. In the twenty-first
century, the vulnerable have become the world's most valu able
commodity.
