The Halliburton Agenda: The Politics of Oil and Money Paperback - 2005
by Dan Briody
Over the last five years, the story of Halliburton--a company which Vice President Dick Cheney used to run--and its many controversies and conflicts of interest have been played out in the press. But these events are only the tip of the iceberg, according to Briody in this new expose.
Summary
From the rear cover
Praise for THE HALLIBURTON AGENDA
"With a blunt matter-of-fact tone, Briody describes the rise of the two companies from the dusty oil fields of west Texas to the marbled corridors of power in Washington, D.C."
--Publishers Weekly
"This is a classic American love story of our time. Ambitious influential politician meets beautifully greedy corporation. They are made for each other."
--The Globe & Mail
In The Halliburton Agenda, Halliburton and its subsidiary, Kellogg, Brown & Root, form the foundation of an intriguing story of cronyism and conflict of interest that has only increased in momentum over the last decade.
Award-winning journalist and bestselling author Dan Briody cuts through the veil of secrecy that cloaks this controversial company, and reveals how the confluence of business and politics has led to questionable deals as well as financial windfalls for Halliburton, its executives, and its subsidiaries.
Halliburton's inextricable links to politicians and the United States military, its dealings with countries known to sponsor terrorism, and its controversial $2 billion government contract to rebuild Iraq are only the tip of the iceberg. The Halliburton Agenda untangles a complex web of political power plays and deceptive deals--revealing how a company with the right connections can finesse its way to success.
