The New Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (2016), a follow-up to John’s classic New York Times bestseller, brings the story of economic hit men and jackal assassins up to date and chillingly home to the U.S. It goes on to provide practical strategies for each of us to transform the failing global death economy into a regenerative life economy. The 2004 classic, Confessions of an Economic Hit Man (73 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, 32 languages), along with The Secret History of the American Empire (New York Times bestseller) and Hoodwinked, were groundbreaking exposés of the clandestine operations that created the current global crises.

“It was the goal of the University of Aruba to have a speaker that would inspire our general public and encourage critical thinking that would help shift our usual conversations in society. John Perkins delivered and much more than that. He educated us about the kind of death economy that we are conditioned into believing is the only reality possible and held out the hope and vision of a life economy that honors life and recognizes the value of deep relationship and connection.”
