NI439 New Internationalist Jan/Feb 2011 Issue

Who's pushing politicians' buttons? Featuring the 10 worst corporate lobbyists

Inside this issue:

One oil company alone – Exxon-Mobil – spent $19 million on promoting scepticism about global warming in order to water down any legislation on carbon emissions. A group of banks, headed by Goldman Sachs, has in a similar way fended off tighter controls on derivatives trading, one of the main causes of the 2008 global financial collapse.

This is just the tip of the iceberg. With plenty of parties, politicians and ex-politicians for sale to the highest corporate bidder, what does this tell us about how we are governed? How can people begin to claim power back from the masters of spin, PR and brown paper envelopes? New Internationalist exposes the murky world of corporate lobbying – and suggests what can be done about it.

Plus Inside:

Susan George: our solutions to their problems
Hugo Blanco: Peru's legendary green Guevara
Eating: should we all be vegans?

New Internationalist tackles today’s most challenging global issues, confronts inequality and injustice and reports on positive changes happening around the world. An established leader of independent media since 1973, New Internationalist is written for our readers and funded by them. We have no media baron breathing down our necks or corporate advertisers telling us what to do.
