Summary
Klein assails economist Milton Friedman's free-market precepts, as their exponents have applied them to a series of formerly state-dominated economies since 1975. She condemns reform programs of the last three decades that have aimed to separate the state from the last economy; the process of market liberalization has created a "disaster capitalism complex," consisting of corporations that thrive on catastrophe.
