The Global Empire by Alexander Bard and Jan Söderqvist (2002) had a profound and lasting impact on me.

Bard is a controversial person and I will certainly not stand for all his stupid quips through the years. But I definitely found this book worth its while.

I’m not sure if it would hold really hold up to scrutiny if I were to re-read it today. But it sure gave me a lot to think about. And it was there I said goodbye to socialism.
