In the last 250 years, free-market ideology has played a central role in the development of the logic and rhetoric that have influenced the daily life of populations throughout the world. It was cornered for a few decades during the twentieth century in favor of a social economy for the public interest, and then returned to the limelight in the last thirty years of the century to dominate the logics that drive world economies, doing the favor of the elites at the expense of 99%. Through the testimony of six people informed about the facts, Laissez-faire offers a historical and ideological perspective through which to identify the fundamental problems of the economic mechanism on which societies are based.

Actualmente Grecia está padeciendo unas condiciones que ningún europeo posterior a la 2ª Guerra Mundial jamás habría podido imaginar que sufriría de nuevo. Gente sin hogar, comedores sociales, desempleo, pobreza, violentos conflictos y el auge de la extrema derecha. El sueño de prosperidad se ha convertido en una pesadilla y el escenario político de las últimas cuatro décadas se está desmoronando. El realizador Yorgos Avgeropoulos enfoca la cámara hacia su país; registra el desarrollo de la crisis desde sus etapas iniciales, al tiempo que rastrea su impacto sobre la vida de la gente. Es testigo de protestas populares en las calles, el desarrollo de movimientos solidarios y también la subida del fascismo, mientras busca respuestas de las personalidades políticas más importantes de Grecia, expertos, analistas y aquellos en la escena política internacional que toman las decisiones clave.

Α few years after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, an unknown physicist from Eastern Germany, who was not interested in politics, is the most powerful woman in the world. Her teacher in the small town where she grew up remembers that she was the smartest student he ever had. Those who have worked with her claim that “Merkiavelli” exercises power without moral barriers, just as Machiavelli taught. A journalist, who knows her well, claims that she uses the methods of a Mafia godmother. In 2008, the German Chancellor was asked to handle the international financial crisis. The countries of the South were placed in the test tube. “If I had to write a book on the Shock Doctrine at this moment,” says Naomi Klein, “it would be on Greece.” How did Merkel manage to impose German hegemony in Europe?

It’s simple math: we can burn less than 565 more gigatons of carbon dioxide and stay below 2°C of warming — anything more than that risks catastrophe for life on earth. The only problem? Fossil fuel corporations now have 2,795 gigatons in their reserves, five times the safe amount. And they’re planning to burn it all — unless we rise up to stop them.

Se pone de manifiesto el lado más oscuro de la ideología de Friedman, tan impopular que sólo pudo imponerse mediante la tortura y la represión. Continuación natural de su gran éxito "No logo".

In 1998, university professor Kembrew McLeod (Associate Professor of Communication Studies at the University of Iowa) trademarked the phrase "freedom of expression" - a startling comment on the way that intellectual property law restricts creativity and expression of ideas. This provocative and amusing documentary explores the battles being waged in courts, classrooms, museums, film studios, and the Internet over control of our cultural commons. Based on McLeod's award-winning book of the same title, Freedom of Expression charts the many successful attempts to push back this assault by overzealous copyright holders. Freedom of Expression is an essential tool for educators, activists, filmmakers, students, artists, librarians, and more.

There's a bad mood rising against the corporate brands. No Logo is the warning on the label. In the last decade, No Logo has become a cultural manifesto for the critics of unfettered capitalism worldwide.

Equal parts cultural analysis, political manifesto, mall-rat memoir, and journalistic exposé, No Logo is the first book to put the new resistance into pop-historical and clear economic perspective. It tells a story of rebellion and self-determination in the face of our new branded world.
