60 familija Amerike

Ferdinand Lundberg

This pioneering work by Lundberg explores the economic and political influence of the wealthiest and most powerful families in the United States during the first half of the 20th century.

Lundberg argued that those 60 families control the vast majority of the country's wealth and use their influence to shape policy, economic decisions and social trends to their advantage. His analysis was a pioneering attempt to highlight inequality in wealth and power, and to explore the ways in which this concentration of power affects democracy and freedom.

Lundberg argued that the American economy is not driven by the free market, but by the interests of these wealthy families. According to his research, these families used their money to manipulate the political process, including financing campaigns and influencing legislative decisions.

Analyzing financial data, the author pointed to huge differences in wealth between the richest and average Americans. Lundberg explored the connection between the big banks, corporations and the political system, which were controlled by these families.

Although the book was written almost a century ago, many believe that the themes covered by Lundberg are still relevant, given that questions about the concentration of wealth and power remain relevant in modern society.
