Global corporations realize the capitalist dream of one integrated world market

Evidence

A more recent version of this vision of capitalism—reflecting both its authors’ views and those of directors of multinational (or global) corporations—is much less poetic but still as certain. “The power of the global corporation derives from its unique capacity to use finance, technology, and advanced marketing skills to integrate production on a worldwide scale and thus to realize the ancient capitalist dream of One Great Market.” — Cedric J. Robinson, Black Marxism_ The Making of the Black…, 1453
