In Corporate Power and the Politics of Change, Matteo Gatti examines how corporations have taken on roles traditionally reserved for governments – advocating on social issues, setting internal norms, and stepping in where public institutions fall short. This phenomenon, called corporate governing, takes two forms: socioeconomic advocacy, when companies take public stances, and government substitution, when they deliver services or protections the state does not provide. Drawing on legal doctrine and insights from the social sciences, Gatti shows how this shift reflects broader pressures within firms and deep dysfunction outside them. The rise of corporate governing has also triggered political, legal, and cultural backlash that challenges its legitimacy and reach. Clear-eyed and timely, this book offers a framework for understanding how corporate power reshapes policymaking and what that means for business and democracy.

Quando cadi nella culla dopo esser nato, ci che ti aspetter sar sempre del tutto normale. Puoi giocare, viaggiare, lavorare, studiare. Fare quel che vuoi della tua vita. Qualunque cosa sceglierai sar sempre catalogata tra le cose normali; umane, in un certo senso. Ma basta un attimo. Un solo minuscolo battito di ciglio per far crollare il tutto. Tre... Due... Uno... Fine. Quella non sar pi la tua realt . Il tuo destino ne sar legato a una nuova. Che si intreccia con quella di altri, proprio come te. E che si scontra contro ci di cui nemmeno hai mai provato, o proverai, a sognare. Perch tutto questo, forse, sarebbe meglio non esistesse. Chiamalo gioco o destino, oppure anche sogno o realt . Chiama tutto ci possibile o impossibile. Quando sentirai la parola Kupicker per la prima volta, tutto questo sar solo l'inizio.
