Yet instead of a rebirth for democracy, what emerged was a silent coup - namely, the unstoppable rise of global corporate power.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eExposing the origins of this epic power grab as well as its present-day consequences, \u003ci\u003eSilent Coup \u003c\/i\u003eis the result of two investigative journalists' reports from 30 countries around the world.
