The Corporation
Part film and part movement, The Corporation takes corporate person hood to the next level. Watch as they psychoanalyze the corporation, and ask, What kind of person are you? With interviews from corporate insiders and critics, learn the true impact of treating corporations as legal persons.
Free Teacher Resource
A teacher's resource guide was created for The Corporation by The
Ontario Institute of Studies in Education of the University of Toronto.
With curriculum for secondary schools, and lesson plans, this free guide
is a great way to bring The Corporation into the classroom, in a good
way.
