“The whole difficulty I think that that we're facing now is the question of who is going to ensure that corporations are accountable. The problem with leaving it to activists and non-governmental organizations-even with the tool of the Internet at their disposal-is that those organizations and those people don't have the legal right to compel corporations to disclose information, and that is something that governments can do.” PeopleThinkingWholeProblemGovernmentCan DoBusinessInformationInternetToolsOrganizationDifficultyLeavingCorporationsActivist Author:Joel Bakan
“Governments can can send inspectors to companies. Governments can put legal requirements in place to disclose information that consumers and workers and other interested people need. Non-governmental organizations don't have that legal power and to me, that's what imposes substantial limitiations on how far we can go with trying to keep corporations accountable though non-governmental measures.” PeopleNeedsTryingGovernmentBusinessCompanyInformationOrganizationWorkersConsumersCorporationsRequirementsInspectors Author:Joel Bakan
