Lingelbach:The Oligarchs' Grip

"The Oligarchs' Grip" is a groundbreaking non-fiction book that explores the phenomenon of oligarchs as a global and historical influence. Written by experts David Lingelbach and Valentina Rodríguez Guerra, the book provides a comprehensive analysis of the strategies that oligarchs use to consolidate wealth and power. It highlights the role of over twenty oligarchs who currently serve as heads of state or government in various countries and examines how their influence shapes the world economy and politics, impacting our daily lives. By combining over 25 years of research, including conversations with prominent oligarchs and a variety of case studies, a model is developed that illustrates the mechanisms through which oligarchs exert their control in an increasingly uncertain world. This book is aimed at a broad audience, including economists, political scientists, businesspeople, and anyone interested in the dynamics of wealth and power.
