Steve Call's book is a large–scale investigation of how one corporation turned into a state within a state, subordinating US foreign policy to its interests and challenging the very principles of democracy. Based on thousands of documents and interviews, the author paints a frightening portrait of an empire for which profit always stands above the law, morality and human life. From the Exxon Valdez tanker disaster in Alaska to the bloody dictatorships of Equatorial Guinea and Chad, Call traces how ExxonMobil systematically ignored environmental disasters, manipulated scientific climate data, and supported brutal regimes for access to oil. The book reveals in detail the mechanisms of this influence: subordination of the state apparatus, blackmail and direct pressure on presidential administrations, active opposition to international efforts to protect the climate and actual complicity in crimes against humanity in conflict zones. This is not just the story of one company. This is an uncompromising exploration of the dark side of globalization, where corporate greed provokes wars, supports genocide and puts the world on the brink of an environmental catastrophe, demonstrating how a multinational corporation can become more powerful than entire states.
