Today, we spend the hour with a man who claims
to have worked deep inside the forces driving corporate globalization.
In his first book, "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man", John Perkins
told the story of his work as a highly paid consultant hired to
strong-arm leaders into creating policy favorable to the U.S. government
and corporations — what he calls the "corporatocracy." John Perkins has just come out with a new book. It's called "The Secret History of the American Empire: Economic Hit Men, Jackals, and the Truth about Global Corruption." [includes rush transcript]

Hundreds of thousands of protesters are
gathering in Germany ahead of tomorrow's G8 meeting of the world's
richest nations. The three-day summit is being held in the coastal
resort of Heiligendamm. German police have spent $18 million dollars to
erect an eight-mile-long, two-meter-high fence around the meeting site.
Global warming will be high on the agenda. Going into the meeting,
President Bush has proposed to sideline the UN-backed Kyoto Accords and
set voluntary targets on reducing emissions of greenhouse gas. Other top issues will include foreign aid and new trade deals.
Today, we spend the hour with a man who claims
to have worked deep inside the forces driving corporate globalization.
In his first book, "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man", John Perkins
told the story of his work as a highly paid consultant hired to
strong-arm leaders into creating policy favorable to the U.S. government
and corporations — what he calls the "corporatocracy." Perkins says he
helped the U.S. cheat poor countries around the globe out of trillions
of dollars by lending them more money than they could possibly repay and
then taking over their economies.
John Perkins has just come out with a new book. It's called "The Secret History of
the American Empire: Economic Hit Men, Jackals, and the Truth about
Global Corruption." John Perkins joins me now in the firehouse studio.
John Perkins, From 1971 to 1981 he worked for the international
consulting firm of Chas T. Main where he was a self-described "economic
hit man." He is the author of the new book "The Secret History of the American Empire."
