Corporateocracy
ISBN: 9780615348049 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The primary question that this book addresses is: "Is the United States of America a Democracy?"

The intention of my argument is to illustrate that the USA is no longer a Democracy, and that the more appropriate term to describe our political system is "Corporateocracy." After the funeral of Democracy in America, we find that our Federal Government is now of, for, and by the Multinational Mega-Corporations. The United States of America has devolved from a Democracy into a...
