THE WORLD ACCORDING TO BOSSES. HOW CORPORATIONS CONTROL SOCIETY

The book "The World According to Bosses" by Peter Bloom and Carl Rhodes is a fascinating analysis of the impact of corporations on contemporary society. The authors attentively examine the control mechanisms that corporations exert on our lives, from politics to culture. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand how modern power mechanisms work and what their consequences are for our future.

• Critical view of the role of corporations in society
• Analysis of control mechanisms exerted by corporations
• Relationships between politics, economics and culture in the corporate context
• Attractive reading for people not interested in economics
• References to popular culture embellishing the theses
• High level of analysis combined with easy reception

The book shows the connections between phenomena and people who seem to have little in common: between Donald Trump and Steve Jobs, between the popularity of bosses and mafiosi, between the successes of political demagogues and the cult of individualism. The authors skillfully combine easy reception with a deepened reflection on modern societies. It is a provocation against managerial fundamentalism and a call to resistance. It is not only an appeal to limit corporate fanaticism to the sphere of business and the market, but also an attempt to shake the foundations of the worldwide admiration for the figure of the boss and everything he symbolizes.

The publication is a warning that the society of bosses threatens the creation of a democratic, more stable and just present and future. It is also a call for critical reflection on how much the values of bosses colonize not only our world, but also ourselves. The authors prove that the popularity of bosses is not only a matter of economics, but also of culture and politics. Their analysis is comprehensive and takes into account many aspects of modern life.
