Power And The Powerless by Michael Parenti
A trenchant critique of how elites manufacture consent and sustain inequality, arguing that political and economic power operates through propaganda, institutions, cultural myths and bureaucratic routines that present exploitation as normal and necessary. It shows how media, intellectuals, elections, and state force work to marginalize dissent and depoliticize citizens while concentrating wealth and decision-making in corporate and ruling-class hands, and it urges grassroots organization and democratic struggle as the path to expose and overturn these arrangements.
