Sociology 324 - C orporate Takeover

Institution:

St Lawrence University

Subject:

Description:

Transnational corporations (TNCs) have emerged as the most powerful social actors on the face of the Earth. TNCs largely control what you eat, where you work, what you learn, what you think, what you buy and for whom you cast your vote. They have rapidly increased their power over international institutions, government policy-making, science and technology, news and information, biological processes, the natural environment and human consciousness. TNC actions increasingly determine who will work, who will get medical care, who will get an education, who will be exposed to toxic chemicals, who will be rich, who will be poor, who will live and who will die. Also offered through Global Studies.
