Naomi Klein Livres

Qu'y a-t-il de commun entre le coup d'Etat de Pinochet au Chili, le massacre de Tiananmen, l'effondrement de l'Union soviétique, et d'autres événements marquants comme les attentats du 11 septembre ou le cyclone Katrina ? Naomi Klein répond que tous ces moments sont liés à l'émergence d'un "capitalisme du désastre". Dans son ouvrage, elle approfondit sa réflexion sur les opérations concertées visant à assurer le contrôle par un ultralibéralisme puissant, qui exploite crises et désastres pour remplacer les valeurs démocratiques par la loi du marché et la spéculation. Ce récit, remarquablement documenté, dévoile une histoire secrète du libre marché et propose une nouvelle éthique de l'investigation journalistique. Il s'affirme comme une lecture essentielle pour réévaluer les enjeux contemporains et futurs, soulignant la responsabilité collective des citoyens du monde. Journaliste et essayiste diplômée de la London School of Economics, Klein est l'auteure du best-seller international No Logo, devenu une référence mondiale. Elle contribue régulièrement à des publications telles que The Nation et The Guardian, et a réalisé un film sur l'occupation des usines en Argentine.

Winner of the 2009 Warwick Prize for Writing In this groundbreaking alternative history of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free-market economic revolution, Naomi Klein challenges the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory. From Chile in 1973 to Iraq today, Klein shows how Friedman and his followers have repeatedly harnessed terrible shocks and violence to implement their radical policies. As John Gray wrote in The Guardian, "There are very few books that really help us understand the present. The Shock Doctrine is one of those books."

For over twenty years, Naomi Klein has been a leading voice in chronicling the economic war against both people and the planet, advocating for a comprehensive environmental agenda centered on justice. This collection brings together more than a decade of her passionate writing on climate change, alongside new insights into the critical choices we face. Through essays, reports, and lectures, Klein explores the climate crisis as not only a political challenge but also a spiritual and imaginative one. She addresses issues such as the conflict between ecological time and our culture of immediacy, the rise of white supremacy, and the concept of "climate barbarism." This work serves as a powerful call to action for a planet on the edge. Klein reports from diverse locations, including the deteriorating Great Barrier Reef, the smoke-filled skies of the Pacific Northwest, and post-hurricane Puerto Rico, while highlighting the Vatican's push for an 'ecological conversion.' She argues that addressing climate change requires a transformation of the systems that created it. This expansive exploration connects the fight for a sustainable world with the struggle for survival, emphasizing the urgent need for immediate change in the face of the climate crisis.

What if you woke up one morning to discover you had a double—someone almost like you, yet fundamentally different? This doppelganger shares your concerns but promotes the very causes you oppose. Naomi Klein, a celebrated activist and public intellectual, faced this unsettling reality when she encountered a figure whose views she found abhorrent, yet whose name and persona led to confusion. This experience left her disoriented until she recognized it as part of a broader strangeness in our world: AI-generated text blurring communication, New Age wellness advocates becoming anti-vaxxers, and liberal democracies leaning toward absurdist authoritarianism amid rising oceans. Klein, a sharp social critic, turns her focus inward to explore our psychological landscapes while addressing the intersecting crises we face. With insights from Freud, Jordan Peele, and bell hooks, she employs humor and a keen sense of the absurd to confront the doubles that haunt us. Blending comic memoir with chilling reportage and insightful analysis, she seeks to shatter the mirror of our digital selves and explore whether we can overcome the pathologies of our culture. Can we foster a politics of collective care and reckon with historical injustices? The result is a profound exploration of contemporary thought and an intellectual adventure for our times.

Forget everything you think you know about global warming. It's not about carbon - it's about capitalism. The good news is that we can seize this crisis to transform our failed economic system and build something radically better. In her most provocative book yet, Naomi Klein, author of the global bestsellers The Shock Doctrine and No Logo, exposes the myths that are clouding climate debate. You have been told the market will save us, when in fact the addiction to profit and growth is digging us in deeper every day. You have been told it's impossible to get off fossil fuels when in fact we know exactly how to do it - it just requires breaking every rule in the 'free-market' playbook. You have also been told that humanity is too greedy and selfish to rise to this challenge. In fact, all around the world, the fight back is already succeeding in ways both surprising and inspiring. It's about changing the world, before the world changes so drastically that no one is safe. Either we leap - or we sink. This Changes Everything is a book that will redefine our era.

Donald Trump’s takeover of the White House is a dangerous escalation in a world of cascading crises. His reckless agenda—including a corporate coup in government, aggressive scapegoating and warmongering, and sweeping aside climate science to set off a fossil fuel frenzy—will generate waves of disasters and shocks to the economy, national security, and the environment. Acclaimed journalist, activist, and bestselling author Naomi Klein has spent two decades studying political shocks, climate change, and “brand bullies.” From this unique perspective, she argues that Trump is not an aberration but a logical extension of the worst, most dangerous trends of the past half-century—the very conditions that have unleashed a rising tide of white nationalism the world over. It is not enough, she tells us, to merely resist, to say “no.” Our historical moment demands more: a credible and inspiring “yes,” a roadmap to reclaiming the populist ground from those who would divide us—one that sets a bold course for winning the fair and caring world we want and need. This timely, urgent book from one of our most influential thinkers offers a bracing positive shock of its own, helping us understand just how we got here, and how we can, collectively, come together and heal.

Remember when it all seemed to be getting better? Before Trump happened? Naomi Klein, internationally acclaimed journalist, activist and bestselling author, shows us how we got to this surreal and dangerous place, how to stop it getting a lot worse, and how, if we keep our heads, we can make things better. No Is Not Enough reveals, among other things, how Trump's election was not a peaceful transition, but a corporate takeover, one using deliberate shock tactics to generate wave after wave of crises and force through radical policies that will destroy people, the environment, the economy and national security. This book is the toolkit for shock resistance, showing all of us how we can break Trump's spell and win the world we need. Don't let them get away with it.
