Synopsis "La Batalla por el Paraíso (in Spanish)"

Entre los escombros del huracán María, los puertorriqueños y los «Puertopians» multimillonarios están atrapados en una batalla campal para decidir cómo reconstruir la isla. En esta vital y asombrosa investigación, Naomi Klein revela cómo las fuerzas de las políticas del shock y del capitalismo del desastre buscan minar la visión radical y resiliente de una recuperación justa.

Naomi Klein was born on May 8, 1970 in Montreal, Canada, into a family of political activists. Her childhood was marked by social commitment and creativity: her grandfather was an animator at Disney and a unionist, and her parents emigrated to Canada from the United States in protest against the Vietnam War. Klein studied philosophy and literature at the University of Toronto, although she temporarily left her studies to work as a journalist at The Globe and Mail

Klein is one of the most influential voices in contemporary critical thought, recognized for her analysis of corporate power, globalization, and the climate crisis. Her work combines investigative journalism, essay writing, and social critique, addressing issues such as brand capitalism, neoliberalism, media manipulation, and climate justice. She has been a university professor, columnist in international media, and co-director of the Centre for Climate Justice at the University of British Columbia.

Among her most famous works are: No Logo (1999), Fences and Windows (2002), The Take (2004), and The Shock Doctrine (2007).
