===''No Logo''===

{{Main|No Logo}}
In 1999, Klein published the book ''[[No Logo]]'', which for many became a manifesto of the anti-globalization movement. In it, she attacks brand-oriented consumer culture and the operations of large corporations. She also accuses several such corporations of unethically exploiting workers in the world's poorest countries in pursuit of greater profits. In this book, Klein criticized [[Nike, Inc.|Nike]] so severely that Nike published a point-by-point response.<ref name="no-logo-nike">{{cite web|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20000416175422/http://nikebiz.com/labor/nologo_let.shtml |archive-date= April 16, 2000 |url= http://nikebiz.com/labor/nologo_let.shtml|title= Nike's response to ''No Logo''|date= March 8, 2000|publisher= [[Nike, Inc.|Nike]]}}</ref> ''No Logo'' became an international bestseller, selling over one million copies in over 28 languages.

Klein's ''[[Fences and Windows]]'' (2002) is a collection of her articles and speeches written on behalf of the anti-globalization movement (all proceeds from the book go to benefit activist organizations through The Fences and Windows Fund).<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://ereserve.library.sydney.edu.au.ezproxy1.library.usyd.edu.au/fisher/KleinFences2002.pdf|title=Login to eResources, The University of Sydney Library|website=Ereserve.library.sydney.edu.au.ezproxy1.library.usyd.edu.au|access-date=September 4, 2018}}</ref>

{{Main|The Take (2004 film)}}
''[[The Take (2004 film)|The Take]]'' (2004), a documentary film collaboration by Klein and Lewis, concerns factory workers in [[Argentina]] who took over a closed plant and resumed production, operating as a collective. The first African screening was in the Kennedy Road shack settlement in the South African city of [[Durban]], where the [[Abahlali baseMjondolo]] movement began.<ref name="Phillips-Fein">{{cite magazine|url= http://www.nplusonemag.com/klein.html|title= Seattle to Baghdad|access-date= February 17, 2009|first= Kim|last= Phillips-Fein|date= May 10, 2005|magazine= [[n+1]]|url-status= dead|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20080110090803/http://www.nplusonemag.com/klein.html|archive-date= January 10, 2008|df= mdy-all}}</ref>

===''The Shock Doctrine''===

{{Main|The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism}}
Klein's third book, ''The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism'', was published in 2007. The book argues that the free market policies of Nobel Laureate [[Milton Friedman]] and the [[Chicago school (economics)|Chicago School of Economics]] have risen to prominence in countries such as [[Military government of Chile (1973–1990)|Chile under Pinochet]], Poland, and [[Economy of Russia|Russia under Yeltsin]]. The book also argues that policy initiatives (for instance, the privatization of Iraq's economy under the [[Coalition Provisional Authority]]) were rushed through while the citizens of these countries were in shock from disasters, upheavals, or invasion. The book became an international and [[The New York Times bestseller|''New York Times'' bestseller]]<ref name="Nation-bio"/> and was translated into 28 languages.<ref name="RandomHouse">{{cite web|url=http://www.randomhouse.ca/author/results.pperl?authorid=15909 |title=Author Spotlight: Naomi Klein |access-date=February 17, 2009 |publisher=RandomHouse.ca |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081020111515/http://www.randomhouse.ca/author/results.pperl?authorid=15909 |archive-date=October 20, 2008}}</ref>
[[File:Naomi Klein Warsaw Nov. 19 2008 Fot Mariusz Kubik 03.jpg|thumbnail|Klein in 2008 with the Polish edition of ''Shock Doctrine'']]
Central to the book's thesis is the contention that those who wish to implement unpopular [[free market]] policies now routinely do so by taking advantage of certain features of the aftermath of major disasters, be they economic, political, military or natural. The suggestion is that when a society experiences a major 'shock' there is a widespread desire for a rapid and decisive response to correct the situation; this desire for bold and immediate action provides an opportunity for unscrupulous actors to implement policies which go far beyond a legitimate response to disaster. The book suggests that when the rush to act means the specifics of a response will go unscrutinized, that is the moment when unpopular and unrelated policies will intentionally be rushed into effect. The book appears to claim that these shocks are in some cases intentionally encouraged or even manufactured.

Klein identifies the "shock doctrine", elaborating on [[Joseph Schumpeter]], as the latest in capitalism's phases of "[[creative destruction]]".{{Citation needed|date=October 2021}}

The publication of ''The Shock Doctrine'' increased Klein's prominence, with ''[[The New Yorker]]'' judging her "the most visible and influential figure on the American left—what [[Howard Zinn]] and [[Noam Chomsky]] were thirty years ago."

=== ''The Battle for Paradise: Puerto Rico Takes on the Disaster Capitalists''===
''The Battle for Paradise: Puerto Rico Takes on the Disaster Capitalists'' was released in June 2018 as a paperback and e-book. It covers what San Juan Mayor [[Carmen Yulín Cruz]] refers to as "a fight for our lives. Hurricanes [[Hurricane Irma|Irma]] and [[Hurricane María|María]] unmasked the colonialism we face in Puerto Rico, and the inequality it fosters, creating a fierce humanitarian crisis."<ref name="Haymarket Books/The Battle for Paradise official page">{{cite web |title=The Battle For Paradise |url=https://www.haymarketbooks.org/books/1235-the-battle-for-paradise |website=Haymarketbooks.org |publisher=Haymarket Books |access-date=June 7, 2018}}</ref>

In the book, Klein applies principles outlined in ''The Shock Doctrine'' to describe the management of Puerto Rico in a post-Maria context. She criticizes the inadequate recovery efforts of the Puerto Rican government in the aftermath of the storm. She singles out officeholders like Gov. [[Ricardo Rosselló]], who prioritized foreign investment interests while the island's residents were left to fend for themselves or seek refuge on the U.S. mainland. She notes that less than one year after the hurricane, Rosselló "told a business audience in New York that Maria had created a 'blank canvas'", implying that Puerto Rico would cater to "disaster capitalists" who aimed to profit off the hurricane's devastating effects.<ref name="Haymarket Books/The Battle for Paradise official page" />

===''Doppelganger: a Trip into the Mirror World''===
{{Main|Doppelganger (Klein book)}}
Released in September 2023, ''[[Doppelganger (Klein book)|Doppelganger]]'' is a memoir and social critique that contrasts Klein's worldview with that of [[Naomi Wolf]], a writer who is often mistaken for Klein and vice versa. In her introduction, Klein explains how she has been mistaken for the "other Naomi", with whom she "has been chronically confused for over a decade... I have been confused with Other Naomi for so long and so frequently that I have often felt that she was following me". For this reason, she started to follow what she calls Wolf's "new alliances with some of the most dangerous men on the planet", and wrote the book with the intention of using her [[doppelganger]] experience "as a guide into and through what I have come to understand as our doppelganger culture".<ref>{{cite book | last=Klein | first=Naomi | title=Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World | publisher=[[Penguin Random House UK]] | year=2023 | isbn=978-0-241-62131-8 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=J6vvzwEACAAJ | access-date=26 October 2023 | pages=4, 10–11}}</ref>

Klein suggests that the Western world has fractured along political and ideological lines to such an extent that each side feels the other exists in a "mirror world".<ref>{{Cite news |last=Goldberg |first=Michelle |date=September 4, 2023 |title= Naomi Klein, Naomi Wolf and the Political Upside Down |language=en-US |work=[[The New York Times]] |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/04/opinion/columnists/naomi-klein-wolf-doppelganger.html |access-date=September 5, 2023 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref> The book received primarily positive reviews and debuted at number 8 on ''The New York Times'' hardcover nonfiction weekly best seller list.<ref>{{Cite news |title=Hardcover Nonfiction Books – Best Sellers – Books – The New York Times |language=en-US |newspaper=The New York Times |url=https://www.nytimes.com/books/best-sellers/hardcover-nonfiction/ |access-date=September 21, 2023 |issn=0362-4331}}</ref>
