Serfs and Kings and Demystifying Political Economy are two separate polemics that take a philosophical approach to the conspiracy behind world domination by the global elite. Serfs and Kings is a thought provoking essay on the arcane historical evolution of political and economic power and how this evolution has taken place largely behind the scenes. It explores our own beliefs as "serfs" as well as trying to understand the beliefs of the elite who have risen to the top as the social engineers of the New World Order. It explores how the masses are manipulated by as Plato called them "the Philosopher Kings" from early on in our education, through the control of history and reinforcement by the media. It provides insight into the true economic causes of war and terrorism and explores the depths of media mind control used to create a fearful public increasingly willing to give up their liberties. Demystifying Political Economy follows along the same lines as Serfs and Kings but provides a more in depth focus on the evolution of political economy both in the U.S. and globally. It explores economic development from local agrarian based trade to the globally intertwined high tech system in which we find ourselves today. Not designed to be an overview of macro economics, this essay focuses on the impact to the human condition in connection with economic development. It takes a philosophical look at socialism and capitalism and the gradual evolution to the hybrid system that will likely become the new global model. It provides analysis of the domination by the captains of enterprise, central banks, and the governments they control to keep the system moving forward. In these two polemics, author Steven Conrad deftly explores the evolution of this powerful elite and the deception of the masses by this esoteric group. His alternate views of history, the evolution of political economies and social engineering are both fascinating and startling. The exploration of these arcane theories will leave readers staring into the great abyss, while creating some practical insights into our basic freedoms. While readers will gain invaluable insight into the one World global synthesis that is currently taking place, they should be forewarned: Once you see the truth, there is no turning away from it.
