ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
“The Shock Doctrine” by Naomi Klein explores how economic elites exploit crises, both natural and man-made, to push through radical neoliberal policies. Klein examines the ways in which countries devastated by wars, disasters, or political upheaval are subjected to "shock therapy" - a tactic rooted in psychological and economic manipulation. Through historical and contemporary case studies, the book links torture, military coups, and privatization efforts to global economic restructuring. Klein argues that the shock doctrine is a deliberate strategy to dismantle democratic structures and establish corporate-controlled systems, ultimately harming vulnerable populations.
