Bananas : How the United Fruit Company Shaped the World, Paperback / softback Book

Bananas : How the United Fruit Company Shaped the World Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In this compelling history, Peter Chapman shows how the United Fruit Company took bananas from the jungles of Costa Rica to the halls of power in Washington, D.C., with not just clever marketing, but covert CIA operations, bloody coups and brutalised workforces. And how along the way they turned the banana into a blueprint for a new model of unfettered global capitalism: one that serves corporate power at any cost.
