Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (ISBN
0-452-28708-1) is an auto-biographical book written by John Perkins and
published in 2004. It tells the story of his career with consulting firm
Chas. T. Main. Before employment with the firm, he interviewed for a job
with the National Security Agency (NSA). Perkins claims that this
interview
effectively constituted an independent screening which led to his
subsequent
hiring by Einar Greve, a member of the firm (and alleged NSA liaison) to
become a self-described "Economic Hit Man."
According to his book, Perkins' function was to convince the political and
financial leader****p of underdeveloped countries to accept enormous
development loans from institutions like the World Bank and USAID. Saddled
with huge debts they could not hope to pay, these countries were forced to
acquiesce to political pressure from the United States on a variety of
issues. Perkins describes how developing nations were effectively
neutralised politically, had their wealth gaps (Gini coefficient) driven
wider and economies crippled in the long run. In this capacity Perkins
recounts his meetings with some prominent individuals, including Graham
Greene and Omar Torrijos. Perkins describes the role of an EHM as follows:
Economic hit men (EHMs) are highly paid professionals who cheat countries
around the globe out of trillions of dollars. They funnel money from the
World Bank, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and
other
foreign "aid" organizations into the coffers of huge cor****ations and the
pockets of a few wealthy families who control the planet's natural
resources. Their tools included fraudulent financial re****ts, rigged
elections, payoffs, extortion, ***, and murder. They play a game as old as
empire, but one that has taken on new and terrifying dimensions during
this
time of globalization.
The epilogue to the 2006 edition provides a rebuttal to the current move
by
the G8 nations to forgive Third World debt. Perkins charges that the
proposed conditionalities for this debt forgiveness require countries to
sell their health, education, electric, water and other public services to
cor****ations. Those countries would also have to discontinue subsidies and
trade restrictions that sup****t local business, but accept the continued
subsidation of certain G8 businesses by the US and other G8 countries, and
the erection of trade barriers on im****ts that threaten G8 industries.
Recent events in Bolivia and Tanzania are cited as examples of the effects
of these proposed conditionalities.
