«The Silent Takeover» is Noreena Hertz's essay on economics and politics, published by William Heinemann in 2001 in paperback (256 pages, in English).
Noreena Hertz analyses the growing power of large corporations and international finance against the decline of governments. The work explains how companies take on state functions, with consequences for democracy and inequality, and argues that understanding this reality requires rethinking our ideas about power.
The full subtitle of the work is Global Capitalism and the Death of Democracy and the book includes bibliographic references (pages 213-242).
For readers interested in political economy, globalisation and the role of corporate power in today's democracies.
