What The Rich Don't Tell The Poor: Conversations with Guatemalan Oligarchs, Paperback

How does oligachic power work in practice? In this fascinating and original study of Guatemala's economic elite or 'oligarchy', Roman Krznaric explores the inner workings of the country's wealthy business sector and how they have maintained power and privilege in the face of change. Based on extensive personal interviews, What The Rich Don't Tell The Poor reveals the oligarchs speaking candidly in their own words on issues ranging from political violence and civil war to race and inequality. The result is a pathbreaking work of political and sociological analysis that offers unique insights into the global phenomenon of oligarchic power.
