How to Rule The World

The Coming Battle over the Global Economy

By Mark Engler

"Mark Engler offers a timely reminder that before Bush's boots and bombs there was Clinton's corporate 'consensus'... He then makes a case that there lies a third choice: democracy. Impressively researched and sharply argued, How to Rule the World is an essential handbook not for the few who do rule the world but for the many who should."

--Greg Grandin, author of Empire's Workshop

Mark Engler is currently on a nationwide book tour.
