A documentary that examines the scale and underlying dynamics of multinational corporate expansion, and shows the deleterious social and economic effects of the multinationals' power in both the U.S. and the Third World. Includes interviews with several corporate executives and with workers in a small New England city faced with the threat of a runaway shop. Investigates the role of the multinationals in influencing U.S. government policy in underdeveloped nations.

This is followed by a discussion with a research scientist, John Valentine, with "Science for the People", who recounts his experiences and analyzes how private industry and universities collaborate in a preoccupation with profits at the expense of people.

This is an incredibly rare documentary that's sadly been forgotten to the ravages of time. This VHS copy was recorded from the 'Alternative Views' TV program, which broadcast the documentary in 1980, allowing it to be saved from obscurity.

If you'd like to rent or obtain a copy of this film in HD quality, California Newsreel still sells it on their website: [ Ссылка ]
