Rogue Economics

“Loretta Napoleoni’s devilishly enjoyable journey into the money veins of the new global order—from sex slavery to fad-diet slavery … is truly incredibly original.” —Greg Palast, author of The Best Democracy Money Can Buy“Rogue Economics offers a fascinating view of how terribly wrong things have gone.” —John Perkins, author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man“Timely and fascinating, Napoleoni’s top-notch reporting, in which her attention turns from Viagra to blood diamonds to the banana price wars in a few pages, works in the vein of Freakonomics, and Eric Schlosser’s Fast Food Nation, but much grimmer.” —Publishers Weekly

“A woman of the Left who garners praise from Noam Chomsky and Greg Palast at the same time as she is quoted respectfully in Forbes and the Wall Street Journal, economist LORETTA NAPOLEONI has been an advisor to national governments while being one of the harshest of critics of the underlying principles and policies of the current world banking system. Napoleoni s books, including Rogue Economics- Capitalism’s New Reality (a Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2008) and Terror Incorporated- Tracing the Money Behind Global Terrorism, have been international bestsellers and are translated into eighteen foreign languages. A longtime activist, a former Fulbright Scholar at Johns Hopkins Paul H. Nitze School, a Rotary Scholar at the London School of Economics, and chair of the Club de Madrid countering terrorism financing group, Napoleoni has traveled widely in the Middle East and around the world. Her essays and columns have appeared in the Chicago Tribune, La Stampa, La Repubblica, El Pa s, and Le Monde. Her most recent book is Maonomics- How Chinese Communists Make Better Capitalists Than We Do.”
