An extremely foretelling, Orwellian, and stimulating book ! October 11, 2004 Rev. Richard S. (PV, Ca United States) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Trilateralism is a magnificient collection of essays that tackle the trilateral commission's policies for world management and domination. Even though this book was published over twenty years ago, it gives you the sense of the here and now, because we are witnessing and living today most of these poilicies that the elites have planned for us many years ago. The projected theories of the past have become the policies of the present. This book will provide the reader with a very educating and enlightening experience.
Propaganda or Truth? - Much needed perspective February 13, 2002 Warren Fritze (Maplewood, MN United States) 14 out of 17 found this review helpful
This book is an important first step in understanding the corporate world, and what the ideaology of "profit over everything" is doing to the natural and human world. Some ideas from Paul Hawkin's "The Ecology of Commerce" (but don't believe him...look it up): *we have decimated ninety-seven percent of the forests in North America *every day we draw out 20 billion more gallons of water from the ground than are replaced by rainfall *the Ogalala Aquifer, an underwater river beneath the Great Plains larger than any body of fresh water on earth, will dry up within thirty to forty years at present rates of extraction *globally we lose 25 billion tons of fertile topsoil every year, the equivalent of all the wheatfields in Australia Call that "leftist BS" if you will, but there is something going on in the world that will reveal it self whether you are or are not looking. Our current business practices are destroying the very infrastructure on which our business ideaology is built upon. If you don't think so, you haven't been paying attention.
Trilateralism - A Biased But Worthwhile Read June 7, 2001 4 out of 15 found this review helpful
As a subscriber to the view that capitalists, for the most part, are heroes and that capitalism, for the most part, is the best of breed, I could have done without the editor's spin. This aside, trilateralism should be of interest to everyone who has an interest in globalism and the global economy; it contains a great deal of information not readily elsewhere. The unheralded contributions of the trilateralists will become evident upon a reading of this book; disregard the spin. I did.
