******************************** A Critical Look at the Corporation's Dominant Role in Society http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/index.cfm?fa=viewfeature&id=1040 Corporations are omnipresent in modern society, a point that consumers, conditioned by the sheer scale of corporate advertising, can easily miss. The film-making team of Mark Achbar, Jennifer Abbot and Joel Bakan, however, is not about to let ignorance equal bliss. The three have made a new documentary, titled "The Corporation," that assesses the behavior of corporations and proposes practical solutions that will allow businesses to balance the needs of society with their duty to maximize profit. Bakan authored the companion book, titled The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power.
