The Great Conspiracy

Sørensen, Øystein: Den store sammensvergelsen

• Was George Washington replaced by Adam Weishaupt as the 1st president of the United States?
• Why was JFK murdered?
Who was behind the killing of Olof Palme?
And who knew about the 9/11 attacks before they happened?

The theory about Illuminati is the ultimate conspiracy theory. The Illuminati Order was a secret society founded in Bavaria in 1776, and has been accused of being a leading force behind the French and Russian revolutions as well as the First and Second World Wars, Communism and Nazism, the Catholic Church and the European Union.

Øystein Sørensen takes a closer look at how these theories have evolved from the 1700s up until today. The book contemplates general aspects of the mentality behind conspiracy theories.

Praise for The Great Conspiracy:

“… a refreshing, articulated and sharp presentation of the modern history of conspiracy theories.”
