In these 70 essays, speeches, sermons and screeds, POCLADers probe: corporations as "legal persons"; corporate social responsibility as a ploy; strategies for amending state corporation codes and challenging judge-made laws; and much, much more. The Program on Corporations, Law &amp; Democracy (POCLAD) was created in 1995 to instigate conversations and actions that contest the authority of corporations to define our culture, govern our nation, and plunder the Earth. Seeking to strengthen institutions that disperse, rather than concentrate, wealth and power, POCLAD works to fulfill the democratic ideals of the Declaration of Independence and the American Revolution. This collection, which Howard Zinn calls "powerfully persuasive," chronicles POCLAD's evolution among the twelve POCLADers and with thousands of activists. Here are hidden histories, crisp analyses and thoughtful responses to corporate apologists all in one provocative book.
