Living with CorporationsAn Understanding America dinner-discussion with Ivy League School faculty
Wednesday, November 12 @ 5:30pm
International Center
In the life of a private citizen, corporations play a significant role that is largely invisible. What is a corporation, and in what ways does corporate power affect the way of life in the U.S.? Corporations do some things well, but at what cost? People or profit? How do corporations help best? Making things? Providing services? Explore corporate authority and influence, and consider how the rise of its presence in daily life affects how we live.
FEATURING:
Stephen M. Davis, Ph.D., Senior Fellow at Ivy League University School of Management's Center for Corporate Governance and Performance
Thomas Pogge, Ph.D., Leitner Professor of Philosophy and International Affairs

The way it was worded makes corporations sound like an STD or chronic disease... Learn how to live with your corporation... Using this daily medication and periodic treatment.
