Naomi Klein - The Shock Doctrine - Part 2 of 6



Uploaded by: policyalternatives
Video Description:
Naomi Klein talks about her new book, The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism. Speaking at a benefit event for the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, a social justice research institute.
Naomi Klein explodes the myth that the global free market triumphed democratically. Exposing the thinking, the money trail and the puppet strings behind the world-changing crises and wars of the last four decades, The Shock Doctrine is the gripping story of how America's "free market" policies have come to dominate the world-- through the exploitation of disaster-shocked people and countries.

Friedman advocated ... ( 5 months ago by munkeerench)
Friedman advocated public funding of the student rather than the provider. He felt that welfare gains could be made by allowing the student (parents) the autonomy to choose the service. Thats not taking advantage of anyone. If all this woman can think to do is sully the name of a dead who actually had ideas, then she dosent deserve our attention.
Why is the European ... ( 5 months ago by nowellian)
Why is the European public school system good and our so bad?
Europeans have been educated and now have extensive socialist public systems. We have been undereducated and are privatizing what few public systems we had.
Do you right wingers posting on here really believe everything should be run for profit and if it is not profitable then society can just do without it?
Is this not a return to feudalism?

cd060170: What you've just suggested (Well, the security of my life is not worth more than liberty.)

Boy, you pegged that one exactly, Norwellian.
Its sad, isnt it...and a real shame. Europeans are SO much better educated its shocking. Again, feudalistic.
But the ... ( 4 months ago by JTickett)
But the intelligence needed right now is the intelligence all schools try to eradicate, the kind that is needed to solve massive problems in our world politics and style of life, not ones in our hospitals and courts and so on. Education systems are good for creating people that maintain the status quo, and further degrade us, but they arent really offering much in terms of REAL human advancement, except perhaps science. We need new thinking, and new tools, not the ones that made the problems.

English Education was top notch at one point but now its different, your not allowed opinions your taught to accept whatever your dictated, its got shit too basicly.

"Enemies of the ... ( 4 months ago by tinderbox1)
"Enemies of the people"? I know I must have heard that retort somewhere. Oh, that was the official term for the 7 million Ukrainians who died of starvation thanks to Stalin's collectivization policies and those millions of criminal Kulacks who so nefariously persisted in holding on to small herds of cattle and some acres of land. Are you that historically ignorant or simply a product of the American public school system?

These clarify a lot. We still have a choice as to where this goes.. but first we should know the destination....
History Repeats....
Hey feudalism was ... ( 3 months ago by ourearthhome)
Hey feudalism was not a bad thing. No one starved and when it was working at its best the landowning nobles paid for public services out of the rent they collected from their tenants. It was called noblesse oblige. Recognition of common rights to use of land was alive and well. Unlike today when the nobles keep the rent and force the peasants to pay for government services out of their earned income on top of what they have to pay in rent. Oh for the good old days. Now its just noblesse.
Naomi, you never ... ( 3 months ago by ourearthhome)
Naomi, you never say here what you would recommend for New Orleans or for the next time. Some of us are well prepared. As a condition of receiving any assistance from outside government require local taxing jurisdictions to eliminate all taxes on improvements and increase the tax on land values to as near 100% of rental values as possible. In this way no land speculator can cash in on the recovery and capital investment for rebuilding is encouraged. Pay for schools out of the land tax. Well?
Ourearthhome No one ... ( 3 months ago by nowellian)
Ourearthhome No one starved under feudalism? Besides if you pissed the Lord off he could just chop off your head. Yea sounds like just where the Neocons are headed!
They have already jailed thousands without charge. Suspended habeas corpus, what is next?
Milton Friedman was ... ( 3 months ago by inkus2000)
Milton Friedman was Satan's personal spokesman
But even the Dark Lord thought Milton Friedman's economic theories where too devious, hence he was banished from hell too walk amongst man -.
Or so the legend goes

What you know about Friedman could probably be written on the back of a stamp.
The sad truth is that the same could be said for Klein.
"The Economy" is ... ( 2 months ago by bimmjim)
"The Economy" is just a mathematical model of the flow of value through our societies. It is not the great provider and punisher.
It is not like your favorite sports team.
It should not be a religion.
It IS just something we made up. Ya, thats right, it is fiction. We made it up and guess what......we can change it.
We can redifine GDP for example. If we redifine GDP then it will go up or down as we chose. All the related indicators, like growth or dept to GDP ratio will also change.

this lady is like the anti- francis fukuyama. not that there's anything wrong with that per se, but she's trying really hard to just say the opposite of all the neocons. here's an idea come up with a new idea or keep your mouth shut.

I admire this woman so much. I've read in one week "The Shock Doctrine". It's a great book. It shows the dark side of globalization, the dark side of global finance, the brutal reality behind dictatorship in Latin America, the new global leadership after the fall of Berlin Wall. It shows also the application of Friedman economic theory in Eastern Europe and South America. I've read with great interest the part about Bush administration full of corruption and Iraqui war... This book open ur mind

Thank you for informing me (and everyone)about this. The shock we are facing now is oil scarcity, it's interesting to speculate on what is to come and who will be ready to fill the void...
