Human Rights Versus Corporation Rights

A heads up on the EP Podcast schedule. Three Fridays out, November 28th, my guest will be Ted Nace. We'll be talking mainly about his on-going anti-coal activism but also about his most recent book Gangs of America: The Rise of Corporate Power and the Disabling of Democracy (Berrett-Koehler, 2003). The coal issue is fundamentally more important but here I want particularly to draw your attention to the book, which Ted makes available as a free download. Please download it. Read the first couple chapters. Probably you'll be hooked. Even if you might not then want to read all of it do read also the last couple chapters. He's a great writer, it's a good read, and it's one of the best — perhaps the best — disquisition on the nature, meaning, potential and alternatives to the corporation that I'm aware of. Most highly recommended!! You can thank me later.
