Description
The Making of an Atlantic Ruling Class by Kees van der Pijl examines one of the most significant phenomena of the twentieth century: the rise of an Atlantic ruling class of multinational banks and corporations. This landmark study dissects the formation of this class and its impact on world politics and the global economy.
