We can see now why advocates of the radical frame of reference point
to the existence of the multinationals as yet further evidence of the general
antagonism of interests between people and corporations. The sheer
power of the multinationals, and the associated cartels, alliancesr and
interlocking patterns of o~ership and control that bind them together,
combine to create a world economy dominated by organizations where
the power of the corporate official often dwarfs that of the elected politician
and that of the public at large.
