Treasure Islands

Nick has form in spotting economic injustices before they fully enter the public consciousness.

His 2011 book, Treasure Islands, Tax Havens and the Men Who Stole the World, helped to create a movement, a movement for tax justice that began with a handful of thinkers and activists operating out of a garden shed in England, and that came to top the agendas of heads of state and government.

The New Competition School is aiming for a similar impact, this time in the realm of antitrust.

Nick's forthcoming book on modern-day monopolization, The Big Squeeze, also situates him among a growing cadre of commentators on the injustices of our era, the repercussions of which continue to push voters toward extreme political movements, and in particular, toward the radical right.

So I'm a journalist, but I'm also, at heart, I'm also a kind of activist.

I see that there are bad things in the world, and I wanna kind of try and do what I can to, you know, influence them.

And, and Treasure Islands, my book, definitely had some influence.

So I'm hoping to kind of achieve, achieve the same thing here.
