Imperfect Justice Looted Assets
The author is writing about these events as he participated in them. He was a member of the State Department and helped resolve (on behalf of the US gov) court cases and diplomatic issues with multiple European nations (Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and France mainly) dealing with slave labor and looted assets by corporations during WWII. It's astonishing the power that some corporations in the USA wield over other nations because of the value of the US market and investments. Investment groups and pension funds essentially have the ability to sanction corporations they do not like and those sanctions could result in huge losses for those corporations. The author had the unenviable task of working with corporate leaders in Europe and their governments to resolve class action suits filed in the USA. This meant satisfying high powered class action attorneys along with making sure that people who were wronged by these corporations in WWII received some sort of compensation and the European corporations could afford to pay.
As important as a subject as this is, the book did drag in places. Though, the reality is that some events were resolved much messier while taking a lot more time than the author wanted leading to you, the reader, feeling the same way.
