Since hearing the term "Disaster Capitalism" by fellow leftard Naomi Klein, Antony Loewenstein has been trying for some time to have "Diasaster Capitalism" happen. According to his ever-expanding bio, he's writing a book about it (and at least three other books also).

He is currently working on a book about disaster capitalism and privatisation in Australia, the Asia-Pacific, the “war on terror” and beyond, a book about the role of the Left in modern politics and a title on the Israel/Palestine conflict.
