Take a critical view of the institutions that affect our everyday lives with this extended essay. The most important of these is the modern-day corporation, which continues to resist social control despite an ability to adapt to the environment like no other entity in human history.Corporations continue to explode with power, and religious, educational, and governmental organizations are looking to them as examples. An increasing number of entities are learning how to conduct themselves by looking at their corporate counterparts, and, as a result, they’re no longer fulfilling their true purposes.Author Francis X. Healy Jr. examines the implications of these disturbing developments. Discover why institutions continue to miss expectations, why society suffers as a result of corporate models, and how money and power interact in problematic ways.The pursuit of money and power is stifling the true purposes of institutions with honorable objectives. Many groups that once carried at least a façade of being above it all are now stuck in the moneypower continuum; if something doesn’t change soon, the consequences will be devastating.
