Shortlisted for the 2019 Financial Times & McKinsey Business
Book of the Year. The extraordinary account of how the secretive
Koch Industries became one of the largest private companies in the
world. Koch Industries, the sprawling industrial conglomerate owned
by Charles and David Koch, specializes in the kinds of stunningly
profitable businesses that undergird every aspect of modern life:
it controls the nitrogen fertilizer that puts food on your table,
the fibres in your clothes, the building materials that make your
homes and offices, and the microchips that drive your life online.
For five decades, CEO Charles Koch has kept Koch Industries quietly
operating in deepest secrecy, with a view towards very, very
long-term profits. He's a brilliant businessman: patient with
earnings, able to learn from his mistakes, determined that his
employees develop a reverence for free-market ruthlessness, and a
master disruptor. Seven years in the making, Kochland tells the
ambitious tale of how one private company consolidated power over
half a century - and, in doing so, helped transform capitalism into
something that feels deeply alienating to many Americans today.
