The Convenient Monster

A DeepDive review

I’ve just published a book called The Convenient Monster, which challenges one of the most common assumptions about exploitation—that it is primarily caused by a small number of evil individuals.

The book argues that focusing on villains can actually obscure the systems that sustain harm. When outrage concentrates on monsters, the economic and institutional structures that produce exploitation often remain untouched.

Paid subscribers can read the book for free.
