* Naomi Klein - Doppelganger, The Shock Doctrine, and other works (10 books)

NAOMI KLEIN (b. 1970)
is a Canadian author, social activist, and filmmaker known for her political analyses, support of ecofeminism, organized labour, left-wing politics and criticism of corporate globalization, fascism, ecofascism and capitalism.  She is currently the UBC Professor of Climate Justice at the University of British Columbia, co-directing a Centre for Climate Justice.

Klein is one of our most trenchant and influential social critics, an essential analyst of what branding, austerity, and climate profiteering have done to our societies and souls.  She first became known internationally for NO LOGO (1999), an analysis of the marketing and branding practices of global corporations.  This was followed by FENCES AND WINDOWS (2002), a volume of essays on anti-globalization topics that ranged from World Trade Organization protests to a study of the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico.

THE SHOCK DOCTRINE (2007) is a scathing critique of neoliberalism — particularly of Milton Friedman’s "Chicago school" of economics.  The book examines what Klein terms "disaster capitalism," a form of extreme capitalism that advocates privatization and deregulation in the wake of large-scale shocks – from economic crises to ecological disasters to terror attacks.

The work about which Klein is most passionate is how the climate emergency can and must act as a catalyst for a bold, justice-based transformation in our bio-region and beyond, with particular attention to the intersections between climate justice and Indigenous land rights; the gendered and racialized labour of care; and the rights of migrants.  These are among the issues addressed in THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING: CAPITALISM VS. THE CLIMATE (2014) and ON FIRE: THE BURNING CASE FOR A GREEN NEW DEAL (2019).

Her most recent book, DOPPELGANGER (2023), is an account of being confused on social media for Naomi Wolf, the feminist intellectual turned rabid anti-vaxxer, whom Klein calls "my big-haired doppelganger."  Destabilized, she lost her bearings, and begins obsessively to follow Wolf's rise in what she calls the "Mirror World" of wild conspiracies and right-wing paranoia.
