Description
Iraq, Inc.: A Profitable Occupation by Pratap Chatterjee is a thought-provoking account of the occupation business in Iraq following the 2003 invasion. The book exposes the failures and swindles of corporate managers, from government-in-exile follies to price gouging by companies like Halliburton. Chatterjee contrasts the employment boom of mercenaries with the crowds of unemployed locals ripe for recruitment to the resistance. Drawing on years of research and first-hand experience in post-invasion Iraq, Chatterjee brings a detailed picture of the plunderous road to America's free Iraq, including dilapidated hospitals, looted ministries, and guarded corporate enclaves.
