False Dawn
The Delusions of Global Capitalism

A new edition of the title originally published in 1998 which argues against the attempt to impose the Anglo-American style free market on the rest of the world. The author claims that the free market undermines the values of bourgeois civilization and is doomed to moral and social disintegration.
