Capitalist extraction and control of global resources is actually a foreign policy philosophy, known as "corporatocracy". This book sprang out of John Perkins' _Confessions of an Economic Hitman".

Not so interesting as the "Confession", but provided additional insight nonetheless into the world of corporatocracy.
