Non-fiction

Chokepoint Capitalism is a 2022 non-fiction book written by Rebecca Giblin and Cory Doctorow, published by Scribe in Australia and the UK, and Beacon Press in the United States. The book introduces the term "chokepoint capitalism," which Giblin and Doctorow created to describe how dominant corporations strategically control markets by locking in both buyers and sellers, removing competition, and leveraging their power to extract excessive value. Although the authors contend that chokepoints are a hallmark of today's economy, the work centers on their role within creative industries.
