In this summary, you will discover how global market players maintain their hegemony over the world.


You will also discover :


  • the doctrine that drives the global market;
  • the mechanisms that condition current discourse;
  • how neoliberalism has initiated a disengagement of the state from social problems;
  • how to construct a discourse that is complacent and convincing for the elites;
  • the latent hypocrisy of the win-win economic relationship.

  • Do you know "The Sapling foundation", "The Aspen Institute" or the "Clinton Global Initiative"? These organizations are among the most important foundations that try to create a better world by encouraging ideas and personal initiatives. These organizations are also privately funded. In "Winners take all", journalist and writer Anand Giridharadas questions this commitment and denounces an ideology that seeks to consolidate its power without ever questioning itself. His critique deconstructs the benevolent discourse of the economic elite. He also highlights the major interest of companies that want to change the world. A better world, yes, but for whom?
