The Digital World Brain 

Author: Jacob Nordangård
Published: December 2022 in Swedish

Pages: c. 200, softcover, illustrated
Expected to be published in English during 2024

Description: More and more often we told by politicians and the media that there is a 'planetary emergency'. There is an emergency, but not in the way leading climate agitators and would have us believe.

In this book, science and technology historian Jacob Nordangård shows that behind the pleasant-sounding words like 'sustainability', 'responsibility', 'equality, and 'justice', there is a much darker agenda, working towards a future in which personal freedom and national democracy may soon be replaced by a global technocratic dystopia in which everyone's actions are to be monitored, registered, and controlled down to the smallest detail. These far-reaching plans have been openly published by agenda-setting organisations. The Digital World Brain is based on the report Our Common Agenda (2021), in which UN Secretary-General António Guterres presents twelve proposals for how a reformed multilateral system could more effectively deal with global problems such as pandemics and climate change.

If these proposals come to fruition, it will give the UN, WHO, G20, along with leading multinational corporations, financial institutions, and 'philanthropies' (through the World Economic Forum), unprecedented global powers that are bound to be even more abused than previous totalitarian powers throughout history. This is the planetary emergency.

We now have a small time window of time before these plans are politically formalised and technically connected into a global system, the Digital World Brain.

The Global Coup d'état

Author: Jacob Nordangård
Published in Swedish December 2020
Pages: 388, illustrated
Foreword by Catherine Austin Fitts
Translated to English, will be published by Skyhorse in August 2024.
Also available as softcover in Polish

Description: “Most people probably associate the phrase ‘coup d’etat’ with a sudden, violent takeover, with tanks around government buildings, takeover of media channels, purges of dissidents, arrests, and so on. But this is not always the case. The usurpers can also seize power without violence, in a completely legal and democratic way, with the consent or even enthusiasm of the people.

There are many ‘existential threats’ (climate crisis, pollution, refugee crises, terrorism, pandemics etc.) that can be used to establish a firmer and more centralized governance. This can be a gradual process, barely perceivable until it’s almost a fait accomplí. Jacob Nordangårds urgent book describes the process, reveals the methods, and identifies the agents.”  (Hans Holmén, Docent Cultural Geography and Economic Geography)

Description: This is a thrilling and paradoxical story of how the family that made the world dependent on oil, has funded environmental and climate research since the 1950s, helped shape climate policy since the 1980s, and supported climate activism since the 1990s.

The Rockefeller family’s long-standing battle against climate change contains elements of sophisticated propaganda techniques, futurism, and New Age philosophy, aiming at a complete transformation of the whole earth system, including economy, ecology, culture, and humanity itself. The Rockefeller Foundation’s stated mission to “promote the well-being of humanity throughout the world” has a dark flipside.

This book introduces the Rockefeller family's most influential members, businesses, philanthropies and associates, and highlights their unprecedented influence over areas such as education, medicine, agriculture, art, architecture, population control, and geopolitics.

An Inconvenient Journey (2015)

Author: Jacob Nordangård
Publisher: Föreningen Wardenclyffe
Published: November 2015
Language: English
Pages: 74, softcover, illustrated, colour

Description: This book describes my journey in academia as I was writing my doctoral thesis, and what happened when I went against the grain and challenged the prevailing paradigm.  It was a journey through both deep valleys and euphoric heights. At times it has felt like a street race where I have been chased by a crowd with pitchforks and torches. I had on my journey gone from being praised to being a heretic and a pariah in the academic world. My words were banned by the authorities and I ended up on a black list. What had I actually done? All I did was to look closer into the backround of the climate policy process. I was just a curious soul searching for some kind of truth. I wanted to know how the world worked. (Jacob Nordangård)

ORDO AB CHAO : The political history of biofuels in the European Union – Actors, networks and strategies (2012)

Author: Jacob Nordangård, Ph.D.
Publisher: Linköping University Electronic Press, 2012. , s. 300
Published: December 2012
Doctoral thesis, monography
Pages: 300, softcover, illustrated
Language: Swedish, summary in English
ISBN: 978-91-7519-744-9 (printed)

Description: The aim of this thesis is to analyze the EU's biofuels policy, which actors and networks shaped this process, which problems and solutions these actors and networks put forward in the process, and how they have acted to mobilize support for their positions. Theoretically, I have applied theories on policy networks, the occurrence of triggering events in the policy process, resource dependence between actors and networks, and how management theory can be used to understand how policy develops. The main results are that a relatively small group of actors has had a strong influence on the policy process. These actors have been at the core of the policy community. The environmental organizations involved in the process have been subordinate to this policy community through resource dependencies. One actor network was formed that wanted to increase the amount of biofuels, while another was formed to protect the forest and soil from heavy exploitation. It took over 20 years before these contradicting efforts collided. This thesis concludes that the process contained large elements of strategic planning and that triggering events such as climate and food crises have been important to justify political decisions.
