The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism: The Political Economy of Human Rights: Volume I

A brilliant, shattering, and convincing account of United States-backed suppression of political and human rights in Latin America, Asia, and Africa and the role of the media in misreporting these policies

The Washington Connection and Third World Fascism relentlessly dissects the official views of establishment scholars and their journals. The best and brightest pundits of the status quo emerge from this book thoroughly denuded of their credibility.
