Patrick Bond has published extensively on Zimbabwe and South Africa and
is an active contributor to national, regional and global public
discussions concerning neo-liberalism and social justice. He is a
voluntary associate of the Alternative Information and Development
Centre in Johannesburg and of the Center for Economic Justice in

* “An incisive yet humorous account of the April 16 IMF and World Bank
meetings and protests, through the eyes of two opposing South Africans,
both veterans of the anti-apartheid struggle. A unique insider
perspective on both the world economy's commanding heights, and the
global protest movement that has emerged to fight the power of those
commanding heights.”
