Reviews
In describing insidiously interconnected global regimes of inequality and injustice, Atossa Abrahamian boldly renews our sense of reality and brilliantly illuminates our political impasse.Pankaj Mishra, author of The Age of Anger
Atossa Abrahamian is the ideal guide—fluid, sharp-eyed, and thoughtful—to this hidden landscape.Daniel Immerwahr, author of How to Hide an Empire
A revelatory look at a globe-spanning collection of "offshore jurisdictions," "legal black holes," and "free zones" . . . an impressive achievement.'Publishers Weekly
Fascinating—reads like a novel yet packs a policy punch for anyone interested in global migration, licit and illicit corporate networks, legal fictions and realities . . . Read it, share it, and above all, reflect on the paradox that while we grapple with how to exert physical control over the digital world, we ignore the creation of vast new legal and physical spaces in plain sight.Anne-Marie Slaughter, CEO, New America, and Professor and Dean Emerita, Princeton University
