” offered what it took to be a bold new thesis about the way corporations work. The film seized on an enormous legal-cultural quirk: that corporations, in terms of how the government and financial sector deal with them, are in many technical ways treated as “individuals” — that is, they’re treated like people.
The surprise is that it’s a much better movie — deeper, headier, and scarier. “The Corporation” did a good job of repackaging the conventional wisdom about corporations into the documentary version of a cautionary tale. “The New Corporation” is about what’s going on right now — about the ways the corporate ethos is changing, and metastasizing, in front of us.
There’s no question that many corporations, in their attempt to behave more like world citizens than psychopaths, do palpable good. Yet the larger capitalist ecosystem they swim in remains, by nature, relentless. In the film, Robert Reich, the former presidential adviser, puts it bluntly: “There is no such thing as corporate social responsibility. Corporations don’t have the leeway to sacrifice shareholder returns for doing whatever they believe is socially responsible.
