This is a very good book indeed. It is powerful, eye-opening, and disturbing. Kline gives a gripping narative for the most part. I say for the most part because sometimes the narative seems repetitive. The book also appears to be well documented.Naomi Kline paints a picture of how the corporate world, neoliberal economists, and polticians worked to take advantage of communities and countries in shock because of some calamity—political, economic, and natural. They move in and inact free-trade, drastric cuts in govenrment, reduced taxes (for the rich), dump price controls, and deregulation. These changes benefit no one except the rich, the poltical leaders, and foreign corporations, who are aften one and the same. The poor in these places go from worse to worser.The book begins with shock treatment experiments funded by the CIA with possible applications to interagation. The idea was to wipe a person brain clean. They also developed sensory deprivation, and thus acting together to destroy the self to be built anew. The next preliminary topic is the Chicago School Economics led by Milton Freedman at the University of Chicago which developed neoliberalism, which to me is a misnomer, seeing how it is a very conservative doctrine.The book, then moves on to the historical picture to see how these ideas were practice in the real world outside of the academy. South America is presented with the shock of political upheaval, starting with Chile. Also in South America, it discusses the debt crisises that occurred following the ouster of strong arm governments. It covers Poland, Russia, and South Africa with their peaceful transfer of power with the economic shift inserted in with little notice, putting the poor in dire straits. It also goes into United States' shocks. One is the Iraq war after 9/11 and the privatization of war. Privatization is also shown to be at work in the hurricane Katrina disaster to the detriment of the New Orleans poor. Coverage is given to the Asian Tiger's financial currency debacle and the recovery from the Tsunami that hit many coastal areas in the Indian ocean basin in 2004.In the last section, Kline does hold out some hopefulness, as she describes people's efforts in recent years to counter the neoliberals and corporatists to take over of many country's economies.I recommend this book, especially for those who have a concern for the poor. It should be of interest to others interested in how modern economic theory affects the world.with the economic shift inserted in with little notice, putting the poor in dire straits.

I read The Shock Doctrine while I was in Italy this past summer. I was, to put it mildly, shocked, but not in the way Naomi Klein means it. Shock used as a force of manipulation and the taking over of our resources and even our perceptions, by those in power and in wealth, is a formidable concept--a formidable reality.As a person considering myself progressive, I have tried in recent years to get to better understand what goes on beneath the apparent destructive trends in our social and political policies. I have realized that I and many of us, have been naive, preaching and repeating, demonstrating but with little or not enough, understanding of the dynamics that are pulling on all of us, and often pulling us down.As a psychotherapist I have been concentrating on the inner dynamics keeping us addicted, just about, to blame and denial. This book, I have to say, blew me out of the water. It is so smart, so thorough and so clear--even if the concepts and facts are making me toss and turn and get upset and have to reread. Meanwhile I have been reading This Changes Everything and No is Not Enough. They are extremely worthy and important, very important in their own right, but I keep coming back to just how urgent the concepts in The Shock Doctrine are. I will do my part and re-read, so as to re-absorbe. This is the stuff we need to be aware of and current on, and have on our lips, in our minds, our hearts, and in the urgent discussions we can only have as we get more aware of what the ? is really going on in a world that often provokes us to be scattered, confused, polarized and even despairing. Oh yes, here too an important addendum is that this book does not leave the reader in a dark space without hope. But please read it to see where Naomi Klein winds up, as she helps us to see where clarity could yield something deeply and dramatically positive.
Naomi Klein is the same age as me. She was born in capitalist Canada, I in socialist Poland. In 1989 communism collapsed like a house of cards. It created a breach that flooded the new wave. At that time, working in the corporate seemed fondest dream; stable, interesting work, modernity, prestige, touching a better world. Today, after 28 years, the situation has changed. Corporate employees called in Poland as lemmings.The Shock Doctrine is shocking. I think this was the aim of the author, starting from a high "C" or by describing interrogation techniques, including torture, in the first part. Disaster makes the opportunity for profit. In these few words can be summarized as six hundred pages book that touches the problems of social injustice and corporate greed over the years 1973-2007, including Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, China, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Sri Lanka, USA.Naomi's views are clearly defined: anti-globalization, anti-war, anti-capitalism, environmentalism. (The influence of family ?; see Wikipedia). It is hard to expect that the contents of the book differed from the author's worldview.For neoliberalism Naomi replies shocking content. I learned a lot from this book. Worth reading The Shock Doctrine, even if the content contained in the book is filtered through the views of Naomi Klein.We were born in the same year, in different countries, but divide us experience and look at the reality. The world is not one-dimensional, and corporate greed is embedded in our biological nature. Alternative? Judging by the last, summarizing chapter probably Naomi itself does not have an explicit opinion on how to alleviate the symptoms of the free market. Communism died, socialism is expensive and creates parasites (see Hugo Chavez), capitalism without a bridle causing barbarism, democracy promotes crooks and populists. What is the solution Naomi?
