Power and accountability

Power and accountability by Robert A. Monks, Nell Minow. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780887305122.

The fate of corporations, the decisions they make or fail to make, is inextricably tied to the financial well-being of millions of shareholders - and these people are not just professional investors but also retired school teachers, policeman and factory workers. Yet, corporations are not meaningfully accountable to them. The business news is a chronicle of a mighty few effecting the fortunes and lives of a powerless many. This book discusses the realities of power and accountability and capitalist responsibilities for those that wield power.
