Summary:
One hundred and fifty years ago, the Corporation was a relatively insignificant entity. Today, it is a vivid, dramatic and pervasive presence in all our lives. Like the church, the monarchy and the communist party in other times and places, the corporation is today's dominant institution. History humbles dominant institutions. All have been crushed, belittled or absorbed into some new order.
