Yes, pdq, and little did their authors realize that the horrors they envisioned could be accomplished even more effectively through corporatism, profit-seeking, mass media, the consumer culture, and mass marketing.

I'll add Naomi Klein's book to the list: "The Shock Doctrine"

Good list, by the way. I've read a sprinkling of them, but not the majority. Maybe 20% of them.
