Globalisation has created an interconnected world, but has not
diminished violence, militarism and inequality. The Economics of
Killing describes how the power of global elites, entrenched under
globalisation, has created a deadly cycle of violence. In this
groundbreaking work, Vijay Mehta shows how attempts at peaceful
national development are routinely blocked by Western powers. He
locates the 2008 financial crisis in US attempts to block China's
model of development. He shows how Europe and the US conspire with
regional dictators to prevent countries from developing advanced
industries, and how this system has fed terrorism. Mehta argues
that a different world is possible, based on policies of
disarmament, demilitarisation and sustainable development. This
original and thought-provoking book will be of great interest to
anyone concerned about the consequences of endless war fuelled by
the West.
