Corporate Scandal: Global Corporatism Against Society
ISBN: 9781845450021 / Angielski / Miękka / 46 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

However, an in-depth exploration of what happened, as undertaken in this volume, reveals that the widespread corruptions at corporate level have their roots in the transformations of socio-political conditions in the wake of an extreme fetishization of the neo-liberal market...
