Does anyone have anything for me to read on why they're bad? I only know a little bit about all three.

Well, these aren't really all "Marxist" or "communist" writings, but they are really good.

The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein

Neoliberalism and Global Order by Noam Chomsky (am I really, after bashing Chomsky so much, reccomending one of his books! :blink: )

The books above are about the general economic theory that these organizations follow and try to fulfill.

Debt, the IMF, and the World Bank by Eric Toussaint and Damien Millet is also good.

Again, these aren't really Marxist writings, and I don't know if that was what you were looking for or not, but they are decent.

That's fine, thanks! This isn't an issue where I'm going out of my way for a commie perspective.

David Harvey has also touched on this issue, though he has not dedicated an entire book to the subject. I would recommend reading "A Brief History Of Neoliberalism", and if you're feeling for more, then "The Enigma Of Capital" also has, a lot less but still, some good sections.
