Summary
This work lays bare corporate actions both domestic and international, under the guise of legal “personhood,” and shows how corporations flaunt laws and act as controlling powers beyond the constraints imposed on legal state citizens. Using international vehicles like the WTO and NAFTA, corporate collective power effectively supersedes the constitutional mandate of nation states.
