The Corporation – The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power
The Corporation is a very well done documentary based on the book, The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power (ISBN 0-74324-744-2).
The Corporation is today’s dominant institution, creating great wealth but also great harm. This 26 award-winning documentary examines the nature, evolution, impacts and future of the modern business corporation and the increasing role it plays in society and our everyday lives.
The film examines and criticizes corporate business practices and establishes parallels between corporate legal misbehaviour (malfeasance) and the symptoms of psychopathy, i.e. callous disregard for the feelings of other people, the incapacity to maintain human relationships, reckless disregard for the safety of others, deceitfulness (continual lying to deceive for profit), the incapacity to experience guilt, and the failure to conform to social norms and respect for the law.
This is a 3 hour version I found online. Its well worth watching.
