...we can see the corporation as an organizational pattern useful in taking controlled advantage of the flow of goods, services, and capital through an economy. .. Corporate structure - as a technology - allows tremendous amounts of energy to be gathered and channeled at will.

Information transfer and analysis technologies are the primary means of insuring the former. Multinational corporations are clearly unthinkable in a world limited to postal transmissions of information, hard currency, and card-file dtabases.
