About the book: 2013 / A hundred years ago, when A. S. Shmakov’s book “The International Secret Government” was first published, only the outline of that gloomy a group of businessmen, bankers and politicians that claimed to control humanity on a planetary scale. Only a century has passed, and we know not only the names of the groups, committees and commissions that became the “ministries” of the world government (the Committee of 300, the Bilderberg Club, the Trilateral Commission), but also the names of the specific people who led them. Nowadays the octopus of the “world government” is widely spread its tentacles throughout the planet and almost achieved its goals - this government has become so global that it no longer considers it necessary to remain secret. Perhaps this book will help the reader understand how the behind-the-scenes work began to seize power over humanity and understand the current complex geopolitical and economic situation.
